أخطاء شائعة

Slang often retains the original grammatical function of the root word. 'Lodi' is a person, not a quality.

Wrong: Ang ganda ng lodi mo.
صحيح: Ang galing ng lodi mo.

Slang verbs don't always follow standard affixation rules. Stick to established usage.

Wrong: Hulasan mo ang iyong makeup.
صحيح: Mahuhulas ang iyong makeup.

The term 'marites' already implies 'person'. Redundancy is unnecessary.

Wrong: Siya ay isang marites na tao.
صحيح: Siya ay isang marites.
