Lỗi thường gặp:
Learners sometimes say *"I am thankfully"* instead of *"I am thankful"* when talking about their own feeling, or they say *"thankfully for"* instead of *"thankful for"*. Use **thankfully** before a whole sentence ("Thankfully, we arrived on time"), and **thankful** as an adjective with *for* ("I am thankful for your help").

Lỗi thường gặp:
Learners may confuse **thankfully** (adverb) with **thankful** (adjective) and say things like *"she was looking thankful"* when they mean the manner of looking. Use **thankfully** to describe how an action is done ("she looked thankfully at him") and **thankful** to describe a state ("she was thankful for his help").
