Errores habituales de los hispanohablantes

Confusing similar words

Sometimes, words in English can sound or look similar to words in your language but have different meanings. For example, in Spanish, 'carpeta' means 'folder'. But in English, a carpet is 'alfombra'. Be careful with these 'false friends'!

Forgetting 'a' or 'an'

In English, we often use a o an before a single object. For example, say "a chair", not just "chair". Use an before words that start with a vowel sound, like "an armchair".
