Signification
Pointing out an error.
Contexte culturel
In Armenian schools, teachers often use a red pen to mark 'սխալ' (errors). The word is strongly associated with the educational system and the pursuit of perfect grammar. In Western Armenian (spoken in the Diaspora), the phrase might be 'Ասիկա սխալ է' (Asiga skhal e), using a slightly different demonstrative pronoun. Directness is valued in Armenian business when it comes to technical data. Saying 'Սա սխալ է' is not seen as rude if it saves the company money or time.
Politeness First
Always add 'Կներեք' (Sorry) before saying 'Սա սխալ է' to a stranger.
Don't skip the 'E'
Without the 'է', the sentence is incomplete and sounds like 'This error'.
