اشتباهات رایج

Do not double up future markers. 'Akan' and 'mau' are both markers of intent; use only one.

Wrong: Saya akan mau makan.
صحیح: Saya mau makan.

The marker 'akan' must come before the verb, not after.

Wrong: Besok saya pergi akan.
صحیح: Besok saya akan pergi.

The verb 'ingin' acts as a modal; you do not need 'akan' when expressing a desire.

Wrong: Saya ingin akan sukses.
صحیح: Saya ingin sukses.
