1.
Using them unnecessarily
Because it is so important in your essay to get to the point concisely, unnecessary

except for

2.
Confusing prepositional phrases
Certain words must always be followed by certain prepositions. These necessary
prepositions are always used in combination with their respective supported
words. Below are two examples of required prepositions—the preposition is in
italics and the supported word is underlined. It is important to remember that
they must always be used together:
You must account
for
every item in your club’s budget.
The meal consists
of
eight separate courses.
Common prepositional phrases:
account for
agree upon
angry with
argue about
