عام غلطی:
Learners sometimes confuse "fate" with "faith" because they sound similar. "Fate" is about what will happen in the future; "faith" is about strong belief, especially in religion. Learners also sometimes use "fate" to mean a simple choice (e.g., *I will fate to go there*), but in English we say "I will choose" or "I will decide", not "fate".
