Common Mistake in English
2.-omission of articles:
Spanish people use to avoid articles frequently. for example: he is
teacher, t havent dog, does she have car? This happen because students dont
use articles in Spanish.
3.-pronouns:
Sometimes Spanish people have problems to distinguish the personal
pronouns (he, him). For example: did not know who was him instead of: I did
not know he was.
4.- adjectives:
6.- verbs:
Students tend to use the simple present when they are speaking
English. She come back; the first time I see her.
8.- other/others:
Generally, students tend to confuse those words. I have others book.
The correct way to say this is; I have other books. This error is also
comprehensible, because the adjectives, in Spanish, can be pluralized.
9.- this/these.
Students tend to pronounce this /these in a same way. Not taking into account
that: these is used to refer plural things and this for singular things.
