Karaniwang pagkakamali:
Learners often confuse "thereupon" with "therefore". "Thereupon" mainly shows time sequence (one thing happens right after another), while "therefore" shows reason (one thing happens because of another). In everyday English, learners should usually use "then" or "immediately afterwards" instead of "thereupon", which is quite formal.

Karaniwang pagkakamali:

|thereupon he decided
|thereupon she resigned
|thereupon they agreed
