الأخطاء الشائعة لدى المتحدثين باللغة الإسبانية

مربك Brother و Sister

Sometimes, Spanish speakers might confuse brother (male) and sister (female). Remember:

  • Brother = boy/man (like ‘hermano’)
  • Sister = girl/woman (like ‘hermana’)

Using Formal Words Too Much

In everyday English, we often use informal words for family. For example:

  • الصحيح: My mum is kind. (Instead of ‘My mother is kind.’)
  • الصحيح: My dad works hard. (Instead of ‘My father works hard.’)

Mum و dad are very common and natural.
