Common English Mistakes Explained

These 5 grammar mistakes confuse even native speakers. Learn the correct phrases and boost your English fluency fast.

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.
