常见错误:
Learners often confuse "deceit" (a noun) with "deceive" (a verb). Use "deceit" for the behavior (e.g., "I cannot accept such deceit") and "deceive" for the action (e.g., "He tried to deceive me"). Another confusion is between "deceit" and "deception"; both are nouns and often interchangeable, but "deception" is slightly more common in everyday modern English.
