Tell me which grammatical error annoys you the most.

Mistakes in the use of grammatical forms They are able to exasperate not only a picky philologist, but also any more or less literate person. Surely every reader from time to time meets on the Internet such wild mistakes, which involuntarily wrinkles the forehead.

Today's edition. "Site" There are a few grammatical errors that would be good to eliminate. And if we talk about them more often, it is likely that the correct use of certain turns will take root.



Mistakes in the use of grammatical forms
  1. "My birthday" or "your birthday." It’s strange to see these words in a greeting. After all, it is easy to understand that pronouns in such cases must be consistent with the word “day”. It will be “my day” or “your day,” not “my day” or “your day.” One of the strangest and most inexplicable mistakes.



  2. "According to the list." This design cannot be considered correct either. After all, the preposition “according to” requires a dative case. Therefore, you need to say and write “according to the list”. The meaning of the words “dress” and “wear” is often confused. Here it is worth remembering the proverb “Put on clothes, put on Hope”, so that everything immediately fell into place.



  3. Many are irritated by the common words “their” and “evonic”. The frequency of use of these words is simply surprising. And how not to be surprised when you hear about “their” and “evonic” from those people who speak Russian all their conscious life.



  4. A special place is also occupied by the verb “to lay”. For some reason, people did not like a more correct “stack”, because of which they “lay down” rather than “lay down”. But "pod" is actively used, although it is correct to say and write "put." In addition, it is believed that the “poklat” is completely absent in the Russian language. Although in dictionaries it is still listed as outdated and spacious.



  5. "Two thousand twenty-third year." You shouldn't make that mistake either. For it is correct to say “two thousand twenty-third year”. Agree that at least the date you need to be able to write correctly.





Of course, a person can make mistakes for various reasons. Perhaps you are dealing with a foreigner who only learns the language and just can not know all the nuances. And a non-foreigner may well make mistakes, do not react too violently to them. The main thing is the written content, not the form.

And yet, what happened? grammatical errors They piss you off more than anything.
