Review Summary
- 3rd person present stem + -ant/-int
よくある間違い
You used a participle (einantis) instead of a padalyvis (einant). The participle describes the person, the padalyvis describes the circumstance.
While 'skaitydamas' is a valid adverbial participle, using the padalyvis 'skaitant' is more standard for impersonal or general circumstances.
The padalyvis requires a clear logical connection to the main verb's action.
