The Nuance Difference: "毎年" vs "壊す"

In Japanese, both 毎年 and 壊す are often translated to English but have distinct usages. 毎年 (まいとし (maitoshi)) represents "every year" (Level: N5) and typically represents Indicates an action or event that occurs yearly. 「毎年」 can also be read 'mainen', but 'maitoshi' is more common in N5 level spoken Japanese.. On the other hand, 壊す (こわす (kowasu)) translates to "to break, to destroy (transitive)" (Level: N4) and is used for Used when someone *intentionally or unintentionally* breaks something. It emphasizes the action of breaking by an agent. Mixing these up can sound unnatural to native Japanese speakers!
