Karaniwang pagkakamali:
Learners sometimes say *"vent someone"* when they mean *"vent to someone"* or *"vent about someone"*. You vent your **feelings** (vent your anger, vent your frustration) or vent **about a situation or person**. Also, some learners confuse **"vent"** with **"rant"**. A rant is usually longer, louder, and more aggressive; venting can be quieter and focused on feeling better, not just complaining.

|need to vent

|

Mga kasalungat
