اشتباهات رایج

You missed the vowel harmony requirement. Nouns ending in consonants need a suffix like -ын or -ийн.

Wrong: Аавн ном
صحیح: Аавын ном

Pronouns have irregular possessive forms. Do not add the genitive case to the base pronoun 'Би'.

Wrong: Би-ийн ном
صحیح: Миний ном

You forgot the hidden 'n' rule for the word 'гэр'.

Wrong: Гэр-ын
صحیح: Гэрийн
