Häufige Fehler

In passive voice, the original subject (I) should be removed or made secondary. The object becomes the subject.

Wrong: Би номыг уншигдсан.
Richtig: Ном уншигдсан.

The suffix is -gd-, not just -d-. Ensure you include the 'g' sound.

Wrong: Тэр хийхдээ.
Richtig: Тэр хийгдлээ.

Ensure consistent tense markers when using the passive voice.

Wrong: Тэр баригдав байна.
Richtig: Тэр баригдсан байна.
