أخطاء شائعة

Overusing 'na' makes speech sound childish or repetitive. Use it only to modulate tone.

Wrong: ใช้ 'นะ' ทุกประโยค (Using 'na' in every sentence)
صحيح: ใช้ 'นะ' เมื่อต้องการความนุ่มนวล (Use 'na' when needing softness)

Traditional Klon relies on specific rhyme patterns. Without them, it's just prose.

Wrong: กลอนไม่มีสัมผัส (Poem without rhyme)
صحيح: กลอนต้องมีสัมผัสตามแบบแผน (Poem must have rhyme according to rules)

Klon rhythm is strict. Missing a syllable breaks the cadence.

Wrong: ลืมนับพยางค์ (Forgetting to count syllables)
صحيح: นับพยางค์ให้ครบ 8 คำ (Ensure 8 syllables)
