常见错误	'Constant' confused with 'constant' meaning an unchanged quantity in mathematics., 'Constantly' used incorrectly as an adjective instead of adverb., 'Constants' misused in plural form when referring to singular concepts.	Confused with 'contiguous' which means touching but not necessarily continuous., Used incorrectly as 'continuously' when describing a process over time., Mispronouncing the word, often stressing the wrong syllable.	Confused with 'steady' vs 'stedy' - 'steady' is the correct spelling., Using 'steady' in contexts that require a more dynamic word, like 'active' or 'exciting'., Mixing up 'steady' with 'steady on' - the latter is used primarily as a command.
用法说明	Use 'constant' when discussing something that remains unchanged over time. It can be used in both formal and informal contexts, but is often used in academic or scientific discussions.	Use 'continuous' to describe actions that happen all the time without breaks. Avoid using it in very informal settings; use 'non-stop' instead in casual conversations.	Use 'steady' to describe something that is consistent or reliable. It’s appropriate in both casual conversations and professional contexts, but avoid using it in overly emotional situations.
