Mistakes

Do you want that I make breakfast?

“That” सामान्यतः “want” के बाद प्रयॊग नहीं होता। I का प्रयॊग subject में होता है, पर यहाँ object के रूप में इसका प्रयॊग गलत है। इसकी जगह me का प्रयॊग होगा।The correct sentence is: “Do you want me to make breakfast?”

 

I'm thinking to buy a new car.

“To + infinitive” का प्रयॊग “think” के बाद नहीं होता। So the correct sentence would be: “I’m thinking of buying a new car” या “I’m thinking about buying a new car.”

 

They enjoyed the football game despite of the rain.

“Despite” और “in spite of” का अर्थ एक ही है।“despite” के बाद “of” का प्रयॊग नहीं होता। The correct sentence would be “They enjoyed the football game despite the rain” या “They enjoyed the football game in spite of the rain.”

 

My five years old daughter loves to dance.

जब age “is” के बाद आता है तब हम “years old” का प्रयॊग करते हैं जैसे - My daughter is five years old. पर अगर age एक adjective की तरह प्रयॊग हो (comes before the person (or object) as an adjective), तब हम years की जगह year का प्रयॊग करते हैं जैसे - My five-year-old daughter loves to dance.

 

Our house is near to the hospital.

“Near” और “close to” का अर्थ समान है। परन्तु “near” के बाद “to” नहीं आता। The correct sentence is “Our house is near the hospital” या “Our house is close to the hospital.”
