Wrong: Nenu tinumu.
صحیح: Nenu bhunjinchinanu.

Avoid English loanwords in formal speech; use Sanskrit-derived adjectives instead.

Wrong: Idi chala fastu.
صحیح: Idi atyantamu vegamugala.

The -nu suffix applies to specific verb tenses in classical grammar, not all.

Wrong: Athanu vachinu.
صحیح: Athanu vachenu.
