Hi!
Here are 3 common grammatical mistakes that I encounter while teaching. Are you making them?
Incorrect sentence:
1. Taj Mahal is one of the most beautiful monument in the world.
Correct sentence
1. Taj Mahal is one of the most beautiful monuments in the world.
Explanation : 'one of the ....' is always followed by a plural noun.
Incorrect sentence
2. His language skills are too good.
Correct sentence
2. His language skills are very good.
Explanation : 'too' and 'very' are adverbs that are followed by an adjective they describe. 'too' has a negative meaning, so if we intend to describe something positively of a higher degree, we use 'very.
Incorrect sentence
3. I went on a trip and I felt more relaxed.
Correct sentence
3. I went on a trip and I felt very relaxed.
Explanation : This sentence is meant to convey a higher degree of a quality; 'more' is mostly used as a comparative.
