استعمال کا انداز:
[someone] [verb] intently [at/on something]
عام غلطی:
Learners sometimes confuse "intently" with "intentionally". "Intently" means with strong focus and attention (e.g., "She listened intently"), while "intentionally" means on purpose, not by accident (e.g., "She broke it intentionally"). There can also be word order mistakes: in English, "intently" usually comes after the main verb ("He listened intently"), not before the noun (not "He intently listening").
