[someone] [verb] illegally
ข้อผิดพลาดที่พบบ่อย:
Learners sometimes say *"He entered illegal"* instead of *"He entered illegally"*. Remember that "illegal" is an adjective (before a noun: *illegal drug*), and "illegally" is an adverb (describing how something is done: *enter illegally*). There is also confusion with "wrongly" or "badly"; these can mean something is morally or practically wrong, but not always against the law. Use "illegally" only when law or official legal rules are broken.

คำตรงข้าม
legally (Means that something is done according to the law, the direct opposite of "illegally".)
|
lawfully (More formal/legal register of "legally"; stresses respect for the law.)
