常见错误
Learners often try to use 'кім' (who) like the English relative pronoun. In Kazakh, you must use a participle before the noun.
Redundant use of pronouns. If the participle clause already implies the subject, you don't always need to repeat it unless emphasizing.
Adding possessive endings to the noun unnecessarily when a participle is used as a simple adjective.
