❌ Common Mistakes Indians Make
❌ "Give one plate pani puri."
✅ "One plate of pani puri, please."
Add "of" between quantity and food: "plate of pani puri". And always "please"!
❌ "The samosa is very crispies."
✅ "The samosa is very crispy."
"Crispy" is an adjective — it doesn’t change form. No ‘s’ or ‘ies’ needed.
❌ "I am feeling like eating chaat."
✅ "I feel like eating chaat."
"I feel like" is more natural than "I am feeling like" for desires.
❌ "This is too much spicy."
✅ "This is too spicy."
"Too" alone is enough before adjectives. No "much" needed.
❌ "How much this costs?"
✅ "How much does this cost?"
Add "does" for questions: "How much does this cost?"
