عام غلطی:
Learners sometimes confuse "prone to" with "eager to" or "keen to". "Prone to" describes something usually negative or unwanted and means "likely to", not "wanting to". For example, "He is prone to lying" means he often lies, not that he wants to lie. Another common mistake is dropping "to": the correct pattern is "prone to" + noun or -ing form (e.g. "prone to errors", not "prone errors").
