عام غلطی:
Learners sometimes use "circulate" only as a transitive verb (e.g., *"He circulated the rumor"*) when in most everyday contexts it is more natural to say "The rumor circulated" or "The rumor spread." Also, some learners confuse "circulate" with "publish"; "circulate" focuses on movement between people, not on the initial act of making something public.
