सामान्य गलतियाँ

In Armenian, the verb 'է' (is) usually precedes the noun in questions.

Wrong: Որտեղ դպրոցը է։
सही: Որտե՞ղ է դպրոցը։

You don't need the definite article suffix '-ը' with the adverb 'ուղիղ'.

Wrong: Գնա ուղիղը։
सही: Գնացեք ուղիղ։

Use the preposition after the location noun, not as a modifier.

Wrong: Սեղանի վրայի գիրք։
सही: Գիրքը սեղանի վրա է։

सामान्य प्रश्न (6)

Because the postposition requires the genitive case.
Yes, but be careful with context.
It means 'where'.
It makes the noun specific, like 'the' in English.
Use 'Թեքվեք'.
No, only for places. For people, use 'մոտ'.
