Common Mistakes in use
of English-Lesson 49
Don't
Have To Vs Mustn't
Don't have to = Do not have to We have to use don't have to to say
that there is no obligation or necessity to do something.
For example: "You don't
have to do the exercises at the end of this page."
Mustn't = must not is a modal verb used to show
that something is not allowed. When you use mustn't you are telling people not to do
things. It has the same force as don't
, as in: Don't
do that!
For example: "You mustn't drink if you're going to
drive."
Downside
Vs Underside
Downside is a noun that means the
disadvantage of a situation.
For example: "One of the downsides of living in Mumbai is that
it is very expensive."
Underside is a noun that means the side of
something that is usually nearest the ground.
For example: "Look at the underside of your iMac car. It is totally rusted.
Driving
Test Vs Test Drive
A driving test (also known as a driving exam) is a procedure designed to test a
person's ability to drive a motor vehicle.
A test drive is when you drive an automobile to assess it, usually before buying
it.
e.g .
vs i.e.
e.g. stands for exempli gratia = for example.
For example: "I like fast cars,
e.g. Ferrari and Porsche"
In the sentence above you are simply giving an example of the kinds
of cars you like - Ferraris and Porches.
i.e. stands for id est = that is (in explanation).
For example: "I like fast cars, i.e. any car that can go over 150mph."
In this second sentence you are giving an explanation of what you
consider to be fast.
