Sık yapılan hata:
Learners sometimes confuse 'incorrectly' with 'incorrect'. Use 'incorrectly' before verbs to describe actions (e.g., 'He spelled it incorrectly') and 'incorrect' before nouns or after linking verbs to describe things (e.g., 'That answer is incorrect'). Another mistake is overusing 'false' instead of 'incorrectly'; 'false' usually describes statements or information, while 'incorrectly' describes how an action is done.

|
mistakenly (Emphasizes that something was done by mistake, not on purpose; a bit more about the cause than the result.)
