150 Common English Mistakes Indians Make (and How to Fix Them)

Fix the Errors That Have Stopped Being Visible

The errors in this book are not beginner errors. They belong to people who speak English every day, confidently, at work and at home — which is exactly why they have survived: nobody corrects them, because everybody in the room makes the same one. Each card opens with the mistake as it is actually said, gives you the correction and the rule in a single line, then explains where it came from. Most are not carelessness at all — they are a sentence carried faithfully across from an Indian language, or a school rule taught only half way. Ten chapters covering tenses, articles, prepositions, plurals, confused word pairs, question order, Indian English, direct translations, accidental rudeness and written English.
