Karaniwang pagkakamali:
Learners sometimes say *"grieve about"* instead of the more natural *"grieve for"* or *"grieve over"* (e.g. say "She grieved for her mother" rather than "She grieved about her mother"). They may also confuse the noun and the verb, saying *"He is grief"* instead of the correct "He is in grief" or "He is grieving."
