Nearly all of us make some of these embarrassing grammar mistakes without even realizing it. Check out the list to see if you\u2019re aware of these flubs.<\/p>\n
Even the most image-conscious people commit grammar blunders in their day-to-day life. With incorrect words, spelling, and punctuation, many people leave a wrong impression on others. Make no mistakes \u2014 people often make assumptions about your education and intelligence based on your grammar and vocabulary. Here\u2019s a list of the most common grammar mistakes nearly all of us make without being aware of them.<\/p>\n
First-come, First-serve<\/h3>\n
<\/p>\n
The idiom \u201cFirst come, first served\u201d essentially means a group of people or things will be dealt with or given something in the order in which they arrive.<\/p>\n
By leaving the \u201cd\u201d, it suggests the person who arrives first will be the one who serves everyone. That\u2019s funny!<\/p>\n
I Could Care Less<\/h3>\n
<\/p>\n
When you say you \u201ccould care less\u201d, you essentially mean you still have \u201csome care\u201d to be allocated to something. However, that\u2019s not what you really want to say when you want to say you\u2019re not bothered about something at all. Therefore, the right idiom is \u201cI couldn\u2019t care less\u201d, which means you care about something the least.<\/p>\n
Irregardless<\/h3>\n
<\/p>\n
Regardless means without regard. For example, Sam will eat chocolate regardless of the consequences.<\/p>\n
