よくある間違い
You used the 'you' ending (-sid) instead of the 'I' ending (-sin). Remember to match the suffix to the subject.
Do not use the perfect tense structure (I had worked) when you mean simple past (I worked). Keep it simple!
The third person singular needs the 's' ending in the past. It is not the same as the present tense.
