Karaniwang pagkakamali:
Learners sometimes use *modernize* for people (e.g., "He modernized" meaning "He became more open-minded"). It is normally used for things like systems, buildings, companies, or countries, not for individual people’s attitudes. Also note the spelling difference between American English *modernize* and British English *modernise*.
