Поширена помилка:
Learners sometimes say *"inhabit in"* (e.g., *"Many animals inhabit in the forest"*). The verb "inhabit" does not take a preposition: say *"inhabit the forest"*. Learners also often use "inhabit" where simple "live" is more natural in everyday speech; "inhabit" is more formal and often used for groups, animals, or written descriptions.
