عام غلطی:
Learners often confuse the verb "clothe" with the noun "clothes" and say *"I clothes my son" instead of "I clothe my son" or, more naturally, "I dress my son". Another mistake is using the wrong form *"cloth" (which is a material) as a verb when they mean "clothe".

عام غلطی:
Learners may think this literary use is about actual shirts or pants. In phrases like "the hills are clothed in snow", it does not mean the hills wear clothes; it means snow covers them like clothing.
