❌ Common Mistakes Indians Make
❌ "Sorry sorry sorry!" (repeated)
✅ "I’m really sorry. It won’t happen again."
One sincere apology is stronger than repeating "sorry" many times.
❌ "Thanks for help."
✅ "Thank you for your help!" / "Thanks for helping me!"
Add "your" before "help" or use "helping me" for completeness.
❌ "I am sorry for came late."
✅ "I’m sorry for coming late." / "I’m sorry I came late."
After "for", use -ing form: "for coming", "for breaking", not past tense.
❌ "No mention!" (response to thanks)
✅ "Don’t mention it!" / "You’re welcome!"
The correct phrase is "Don’t mention it" — not just "No mention".
❌ "I didn’t did it on purpose."
✅ "I didn’t do it on purpose."
After "didn’t", use base form: "didn’t do", not "didn’t did".
