أخطاء شائعة

Because 'ა' is a vowel, you must use 'ჰ-' instead of 'ს-'.

Wrong: მე მას წიგნს ს-აძლევ.
صحيح: მე მას წიგნს ჰ-აძლევ.

Remember to include the indirect object pronoun 'მას' to clarify the marker.

Wrong: მე ვუგზავნი წიგნი.
صحيح: მე მას წიგნს ვუგზავნი.

Ensure the verb root matches the intended meaning of 'sending'.

Wrong: მე გ-იგზავნი.
صحيح: მე გ-იგზავნი (valid, but context dependent).
