اشتباهات رایج
Using standard honorifics for royalty misses the required register, while using royal honorifics for friends is socially jarring.
Even in high honorifics, you must maintain correct verb agreement. 'Bayo' is too low for a respectful context.
Mixing pronouns like 'Tapai' with royal titles creates a register clash. Use 'Mausuf' consistently.
