COMMON ENGLISH MISTAKES THAT YOU SHOULD AVOID

---

CONFUSING "THERE," "THEIR," AND "THEY'RE":  "There" refers to a place, "their" is possessive, and "they're" is a contraction of "they are."

CONFUSING "YOUR" AND "YOU'RE": "Your" is possessive, while "you're" is a contraction of "you are."

DOUBLE NEGATIVES: Using two negative words in the same sentence can create confusion. For example, saying "I don't have none" instead of "I don't have any."

CONFUSING "ITS" AND "IT'S": "Its" is possessive, while "it's" is a contraction of "it is."

CONFUSING "WHO" AND "WHOM": "Who" is used as the subject of a sentence, while "whom" is used as the object of a sentence.

CONFUSING "GOOD" AND "WELL": "Good" is an adjective, while "well" is an adverb. For example, "He did well on the test" instead of "He did good on the test."

USING INCOMPLETE SENTENCES: Sentences should have a subject and a verb, and express a complete thought.
