اشتباهات رایج

In a subordinate clause, the 'inte' must come before the verb, not after.

Wrong: Jag vet att han kommer inte.
صحیح: Jag vet att han inte kommer.

If the sentence starts with a bisats, the main clause must begin with the verb to maintain V2 order.

Wrong: Eftersom det regnar, jag stannar hemma.
صحیح: Eftersom det regnar, stannar jag hemma.

Actually, this is correct! Students often doubt this because it feels like English, but here it matches the rule.

Wrong: Jag tror att han inte gillar kaffe.
صحیح: Jag tror att han inte gillar kaffe.
