Heart of English

Why students create grammatical errors?

What are their common mistakes?

   Writing is an art that reflects a person. Common errors occur when the rules are violated, like in subject-verb agreement there are rules created, and many students do not follow it some says “ A boy with his friends go out.” It’s definitely wrong because, intervening phrases or clauses (with his friends) do not affect the subject-verb agreement it must be “A boy with his friends goes out.” Redundancy is one of the common errors of the students. Redundancy is repetition of ideas for example “In this modern world of ours, man nowadays is fast becoming a Frankenstein.” Thus, we should not apply it because makes the readers confused. This is the correct one “Modern man is fast becoming a Frankenstein. Shifting of tenses also observed. And the funniest errors create by the students is the incorrect usage of punctuation marks.
