10 Common English Grammar Mistakes Hindi Speakers Make — How AI Fixes Them

Updated: March 202610 min read

English and Hindi have very different sentence structures. In Hindi, we often say "मैंने काम किया" (Maine kaam kiya), but in English, the tense changes based on time and intent. This leads to common "Hinglish" errors that can sound unprofessional.

1. Using 'Did' with Past Tense

❌ Wrong: I did not went there.

✅ Correct: I did not go there.

Why? In English, "did" is already in the past tense. You don't need to use the past tense form of the verb (went) after it. Always use the base form (go).

2. The "Since" vs "For" Trap

Hindi uses "से" (se) for both starting points and durations. English is stricter.

📅 Since = Point in time (Since 2010, Since Monday)

For = Duration of time (For 5 years, For 2 hours)

3. Redundant "Discuss About"

In Hindi, we say "इसके बारे में चर्चा करें" (Iske baare mein charcha karein). But "discuss" already means "talk about."

❌ Wrong: Let's discuss about the plan.

✅ Correct: Let's discuss the plan.
