Common Errors in English Usage

Jump to Comments

We Filipinos are quick to spot language bloopers and easily crack up whenever these blunders are made, either by family, or friend, but most ecstatically by a foe. I remember sharing Erap text jokes. And vividly remember a Ms. Philippines candidate say “unexpectively” in her interview. Melanie Marquez’s “long-legged legs” is a favorite, too. Then I often hear speeches addressing a member of the school’s board of trustees as “board of trustee“.

Well, even people who speak English as a native language share this, particularly in the use of idioms. Here’s an interesting link which lists these common errors in English usage.
