2. Tense Errors

This one is almost common and easy to spot, and everyone has probably experienced this at least once. The incorrect word between past, future, and present tense can be so confusing if we wrote it wrong. For example:

"Saw" vs. "Seen"

While "saw" is a simple past tense, "seen" is a past participle. Both words are from the word see. People usually wrote, "I saw him yesterday," which is incorrect. The correct one is "I saw him yesterday."

3. Misusing Plurals

This one is very rare but also funny to read. People often wrote "childrens" or "womens," while children and women are words containing plural nouns, no need to add s. 

4. Wrong Comma Placement

This is one of the fatal ones out of all. One wrong comma placement and you either become a joke for everyone or you're in a serious situation. 

For example, instead of writing "Let's eat, grandma," you wrote "Let's eat grandma." That'll be a hilarious fail or either a scary sentence. Imagine people thought you'd be eating your grandma over a simple comma mistake. Don't do that!

5. Overusing Abbreviations or Internet Slang

Using abbreviations or internet slang is basically a shortened word and acronym. Like when people write "you are" as "u r" for shorter or "easy" as "ez." Or abbreviations like "LOL" (Laughing Out Loud) or "BTW" (By The Way).
