Поширена помилка:
Learners often confuse "fascinating" with "fascinated". Use "fascinating" to describe the thing (a fascinating book), and "fascinated" to describe the person (I am fascinated by this book). Another mistake is using "fascinating" too often where "interesting" is enough; "fascinating" is stronger and should be kept for things that are especially interesting.
