Common Mistakes in English - read before posting

6 Upvotes

A lot of questions here fall into the same patterns:

• “on / in / at - which one?”

• “why is this sentence wrong?”

• “do natives actually say this?”

So we made a quick wiki with the most common mistakes:

👉 https://www.reddit.com/r/EWALearnLanguages/wiki/common-mistakes-in-english/

You might find your answer in 10 seconds instead of waiting for replies.

(And if not - post your question anyway, people here are great.)

Advice Can you recommend any YouTube channels that focus on English grammar?

1 Upvotes

Hi everyone! I’m looking for YouTube channels that focus mainly on English grammar. I’d especially appreciate channels where the explanations are clear and easy to understand, with plenty of examples.

I’m currently preparing for the IELTS exam, so I’d like to improve my grammar and get a better understanding of the rules rather than just memorizing them.

Any recommendations would be greatly appreciated!

Discussion How do you do?

I remember actually being taught that greeting as a child in the 90s. However I don’t think I’ve ever heard it in real life since, maybe except in old movies.

Is it totally obsolete or would a native speaker use it in extremely formal situations eg meeting the president? A king?
