Common English Mistakes Explained
English learners often make small mistakes that can really confuse listeners. In this video, we break down 5 common errors and how to fix them.
First, we tackle indirect questions. Saying I wonder what’s that is incorrect. You should say I wonder what that is. It’s a subtle change, but important.
Next, we fix phrasal verbs. Saying before we leave out sounds unnatural—just say before we leave.
We also correct double negatives like I ain’t got none. This actually means the opposite of what you intend! Say I don’t have any instead.
Then, there’s the classic mix-up: I did a 360. That means you turned in a full circle and ended up in the same spot. You probably meant a 180.
Finally, we explain the subjunctive mood: it’s I wish I were there, not was.
This quick guide is perfect for anyone who wants to sound more fluent, polished, and accurate in everyday English conversations.
