Common English Grammar Mistakes
-
Third Person Singular Verbs: Add "s" or "-es" to the verb for "he," "she," "it," or singular nouns. Example: "He works," "She studies," "The cat sleeps."
-
Negative Sentences: Use "do not" or "does not" instead of "no." Example: "She does not work here," "They do not understand."
-
Present Continuous for Habits: Avoid using the present continuous tense for habitual actions. Example: Using "I am going to the gym every day" is incorrect. Correct usage would be "I go to the gym every day."
-
Adverb Placement: Place adverbs after the main verb. Example: "I am always late," "He usually arrives early."
-
Subject-Verb Agreement: Explicitly state the subject when necessary. Example: "It is sunny today," "The dog is friendly.," "There are many birds."
