Common mistakes
The suspect was extraditioned to the US.The suspect was extradited to the US.
extradition 是名词（引渡），不能作动词；表示“被引渡”应用动词 extradite 的被动语态 be extradited。把 extradition 当动词使用属于词性混淆错误。
The police extradited the criminal France.The police extradited the criminal to France.
extradite 是及物动词，宾语是被引渡的人，目的地必须用介词 to 引出：extradite sb to + 国家/地点。缺少 to 会让句子语法不完整、语义不清，因此不能说 extradite sb France。

Pronunciation & Spelling
Only the final /daɪt/ matches: expedite and erudite share it with extradite, but because the main stress falls earlier they do not fully rhyme. Be careful with lookalikes: appetite has final /taɪt/ (t, not d), and definite /ˈdefɪnət/ and opposite /ˈɒpəzɪt/ spell -ite as a weak syllable, not /aɪt/.
