عام غلطی:
Learners often confuse "enforce" with "force" and "impose". "Enforce" almost always takes an abstract object like a law, rule, or policy (e.g., "enforce the rules"), not a person (we do NOT say *"enforce him to leave"; instead say "force him to leave"). Learners also mix up "enforce" and "reinforce": "enforce" is about making people obey rules; "reinforce" is about making something stronger (e.g., "reinforce an argument").
