Lỗi thường gặp:
Learners often confuse "gratification" with "gratitude". "Gratification" is the pleasure or satisfaction you feel from getting what you want, while "gratitude" is thankfulness to someone. Also, "gratification" is usually uncountable ("a lot of gratification", not *"many gratifications" in everyday use).
