Chapter 18: Common Errors in English
Is chapter mein hum usage, preposition, aur expression se related galti dekhenge, jinko theek karne se aapki English **naturally correct** ho jaegi.
1. Adjective Aur Adverb Ki Galti
Jaisa ki humne Chapter 4 mein dekha tha, Good aur Well ka farak aam galti hai.
| Error (Galat) | Correction (Sahi) | Logic (Kyun?) |
|---|---|---|
| My brother performed |
My brother performed well. | 'Performed' (Verb) ko **Adverb (well)** describe karta hai, Adjective (*good*) nahi. |
| He is speaking |
He is speaking fluently. | 'Speaking' (Verb) ko **Adverb (fluently)** describe karta hai. |
2. Tense Aur V-Form Ki Galtiyan 🕰️
Past aur Perfect Tense mein aksar galti hoti hai.
| Error (Galat) | Correction (Sahi) | Logic (Kyun?) |
|---|---|---|
| I have |
I have gone to Delhi. | Perfect Tense hamesha **V3 (gone)** leta hai, V2 (*went*) nahi. |
| I |
I saw the movie yesterday. | Agar time (yesterday) diya hai, toh **Simple Past (V2)** use karein, Present Perfect nahi. |
| He |
He knows the answer. | **State Verbs** (*know, believe, like*) ko Continuous Tense mein use nahi karte. |
3. Preposition Ki Galtiyan 📍
Preposition ke misuse se matlab pura badal jaata hai.
| Error (Galat) | Correction (Sahi) | Logic (Kyun?) |
|---|---|---|
| He is married |
He is married to a doctor. | 'Married' ke saath hamesha **to** use hota hai, *with* nahi. |
| I am going |
I am going to the market. | Destination batane ke liye **to** use hota hai. (*In* andar hona batata hai.) |
| She is |
She is waiting for you. | 'Wait' ke saath **'for' zaroori** hai. (Aksar log hata dete hain.) |
| He suddenly came across |
He suddenly came across me. | 'Come across' (milna) ke saath **'to' extra** hai. |
4. Extra Words (Redundancy) 🗑️
Kuch Hindi expressions ko seedha translate karne se extra words aa jaate hain.
| Error (Galat) | Correction (Sahi) | Logic (Kyun?) |
|---|---|---|
| Why is he late? | Question mein **Helping Verb (is) Subject (he) se pehle** aata hai. | |
| I will revert |
I will revert to you. | 'Revert' ka matlab hi **'come back'** hai, toh 'back' redundant (extra) hai. |
| The reason is |
The reason is that... | **Reason aur because** ek saath use nahi hote (ya toh 'The reason is that...' ya sirf 'because...'). |
| Please discuss |
Please discuss the issue. | 'Discuss' ka matlab hi **'talk about'** hai, toh 'about' extra hai. |
5. Subject-Verb Agreement Ki Galtiyan (Chapter 17 Revision)
| Error (Galat) | Correction (Sahi) | Logic (Kyun?) |
|---|---|---|
| One of the boys |
One of the boys is missing. | Main Subject **'One' (Singular)** hai, isliye 'is' aayega. |
| The news |
The news is interesting. | 'News' hamesha **Singular** mani jaati hai. |
