Häufige Fehler

Repetition of the noun 'գիրքը' is unnecessary. Use a pronoun for better flow.

Wrong: Ես սիրում եմ գիրքը։ Գիրքը լավն է։
Richtig: Ես սիրում եմ գիրքը։ Այն լավն է։

Ellipsis makes the sentence natural by removing redundant words.

Wrong: Մենք գնացինք կինո, իսկ նրանք չգնացին կինո։
Richtig: Մենք գնացինք կինո, իսկ նրանք՝ ոչ։

Theme/Rheme structure usually puts the known topic first in Armenian.

Wrong: Այսօր գեղեցիկ է եղանակը։

Häufige Fragen (6)

In formal writing, it is better to avoid it. Use 'նաև' or 'ավելին' instead.
It is neutral, but 'սակայն' is safer for professional contexts.
It is flexible, but pragmatic.
No, it is standard.
'Սա' is a pronoun (This thing), while 'այս' is an adjective (This [noun]). You use սա alone and այս with a noun.
Use ինքը to refer back to the subject of the sentence or to emphasize 'he himself'. It avoids ambiguity when there are two men or two women in a story.
