Example of a confusing word: entrance (a way in)

▪Please check the entrance in the logbook.
▪Please verify the way in through the logbook.
"Entries" are individual items or records in a log or list, used correctly in "Please check the entries in the logbook." In contrast, "entrance" refers to a physical location or point of entry, and using it in the sentence "Please check the entrance in the logbook" is grammatically incorrect and changes the meaning entirely. "Entries" is the correct choice when referring to items in a log or list.
