  • Subject + [State/Identity] + Conjugated 'Hona'

よくある間違い

You used 'hai' (is) with 'Main' (I). 'Han' is the specific form for the first person.

Wrong: Main hai.
正解: Main han.

The verb should be at the end, and 'oh' requires 'hai', not 'han'.

Wrong: Oh han khush.
正解: Oh khush hai.

For 'Tusi' (you), use 'ho'.

Wrong: Tusi hai khush?
正解: Tusi khush ho?
