اشتباهات رایج

Using standard honorifics for royalty misses the required register, while using royal honorifics for friends is socially jarring.

Wrong: तपाईंले यो दिनुहोस्। (Please give this - Standard Honorific)
صحیح: मौसुफले यो प्रदान बक्सियोस्। (May Your Majesty bestow this - Royal)

Even in high honorifics, you must maintain correct verb agreement. 'Bayo' is too low for a respectful context.

Wrong: उहाँ सवारी भयो।
صحیح: उहाँ सवारी हुनुभयो।

Mixing pronouns like 'Tapai' with royal titles creates a register clash. Use 'Mausuf' consistently.

Wrong: तपाईं मौसुफ हुनुहुन्छ।
صحیح: मौसुफ सवारी हुनुहुन्छ।
