Atrocious mix of Urdu and English:

Hamain Kilifton beach par aa kay baraa enjoaaey aaya.

Ham ne Kilifton beach par aa kay baraa enjoaaey kia.

Aisaam-ul-Haq hamaara proud hain.

Two weeks ago at our fav Chinese restaurant our main course arrived before the appetizer. I asked our sweet friend and hostess about it. She replied (It is) “going coming”. She is a sweetheart.

@Enigmatic

So what are some of the most common grammatical errors you come across as far as written and spoken English/Urdu (or any other language) is concerned on a daily basis. And am I the only one who gets put off by wrong (atrocious) use of grammar in every day written correspondence or even conversations?

Perhaps?

So do you think we humans, as a whole, are getting smarter for noticing these errors? Or are we (space plumbers included) just dumb for making them in the first place?

I observed that I mix present continuous and future continuous.

At least you know what present continuous and future continuous are. I don’t.

And I don’t think I care.
