常见错误：
Learners often confuse "commemorate" with "celebrate." "Celebrate" is usually happy and festive, while "commemorate" is often more serious or respectful, especially for deaths or tragic events. Also, do not say *"commemorate about"*; use a direct object: "commemorate the event," not "commemorate about the event." Another common error is mixing it up with "commiserate," which means to share someone's sadness.
