Sık yapılan hata:
Learners often treat "paperwork" as a countable noun and say *paperworks* or *many paperworks*. In modern English, "paperwork" is uncountable: say "a lot of paperwork", "some paperwork", or "pieces of paperwork" rather than adding *s*. Learners may also confuse "paperwork" with "homework"; "paperwork" is usually for official, work, or legal documents, not school exercises.
