Errori comuni	Confused with 'imply' — they have different meanings., Using 'applied' incorrectly in past tense when referring to a suggestion., Omitting the object when stating to 'apply' something.	Confused with 'force' — enforcing is about making rules happen, while forcing is about physical strength., Using 'enforce' incorrectly with non-physical rules; it should only relate to laws or regulations., Incorrectly using 'enforce' intransitively; it always requires an object (what is being enforced).	Confused with 'practise' which is the verb form in British English., Using 'practice' as a verb in British English, where it should be 'practise'., Omitting the object when specifying what to practice.	Using 'request' with a different preposition, such as 'request for'., Confusing 'request' with 'require'., Not using it in the correct form, like 'requested' instead of 'requesting'.	Confused with 'use' – 'utilize' sounds more complex., Overused in simple contexts where 'use' is sufficient., Assumed to mean something different from 'use'.
Note d'uso	Use 'apply' when talking about using knowledge in practice or requesting a position. It is neutral and can fit in both casual and formal settings. Avoid using in overly casual contexts.	Commonly used in legal or official contexts. Avoid using in informal conversation. It is appropriate when discussing laws, rules, or policies but not suitable for personal opinions.	Use 'practice' when referring to improving skills through repetition. In a formal context, use 'practise' (with an 's' in British English) for the verb form.
