عام غلطی:
Learners sometimes confuse "rocket" and "spaceship". A "rocket" is the powered vehicle or projectile itself, while "spaceship" usually suggests a space vehicle that carries people and can be used like a ship. Learners may also overuse "rocket" for all space vehicles; satellites and space stations are not usually called rockets once they are in orbit.

In standard usage, the thing that goes up is the subject: "Prices rocketed" or "Sales rocketed". If you want a transitive verb, use "raise" or "increase" ("The company raised the prices").

عام غلطی:
Learners sometimes confuse this physical-movement sense with the "increase quickly" sense and use it with money or numbers where "rocketed" is possible but ambiguous. With physical movement, the subject is a moving object like a car, ball, or person; with increases, the subject is an amount, price, or level.
