عام غلطی:
Learners sometimes confuse "harshly" with "hardly" because they look similar. "Harshly" means in a very unkind or severe way, while "hardly" means almost not at all (e.g., "I hardly know him"). Another mistake is using "harsh" instead of "harshly" before verbs (e.g., *"He spoke harsh"*). Here the adverb form "harshly" is needed: "He spoke harshly."
