Review Summary

  • Noun + -n or -o suffix

सामान्य गलतियाँ

While 'miškan' sounds poetic, it is not a standard fixed expression. Use the standard 'į + Accusative' unless writing formal archaic poetry.

Wrong: Aš einu miškan.
सही: Aš einu į mišką.

The noun 'laukas' requires the specific archaic form when used as an adverb of direction.

Wrong: Jis eina lauką.
सही: Jis eina laukan.

You treated the archaic 'namo' (homeward) as a base noun. 'Namo' is an adverbial form, not the nominative case.

Wrong: Namoas yra gražus.
सही: Namas yra gražus.
