And through years of teaching English

Tijekom godina učenja engleskog jezika

at language schools and at university,

na tečajevima jezika i na sveučilištu,

these are the same mistakes that a whole range

to su iste greške koje

of English learners make

prave učenici engleskog jezika

from beginners right through to even

od početnika pa čak do

advanced level students.

studenata na naprednoj razini

They're just really common mistakes

To su zaista dosljedne pogreške

that you keep making again and again

koje pravite iznova i iznova

sometimes because, you know,

ponekad zato što, znate,

the grammar is difficult to understand but sometimes

da je gramatiku teško razumjeti, ali ponekad

because these mistakes have never been

što ove greške nisu nikada

properly corrected for you

ispravljene

so they become bad habits.

tako da postaju loša navika

They keep happening without you even realising it.

Nastavljaju se događati bez da to shvatite

And if you don't recognise them,

I ako ih ne prepoznate

if you don't see the mistakes that you're making,

Ako ne vidite greške koje pravite

then you can't fix them, can you?

ne možete ih popraviti,zar ne?

So what are the 10 most common grammar mistakes

Dakle, kojih su 10 najčešćih gramatičkih pogrešaka

that English learners make?

koje čine učenici engleskog?

Number one,

Broj 1

uncountable nouns.

nebrojive imenice

So you probably know that there are

Vi vjerojatno znate da postoje

two types of nouns in English

dva tipa imenica u engleskom jeziku

countable and uncountable nouns.

brojive i nebrojive imenice

Countable nouns are easy!

Brojive imenice su jednostavne!

You can count them.

Možete ih brojati.

And when there's more than one,

I kada imamo više nego jednu

the noun becomes plural, we add an S.

imenicu, da dobijamo množinu dodajemo s.

One apple,

Jedna jabuka,

three cars,

tri automobila,

a million subscribers.

milijun pretplatnika

The noun becomes plural when there's more than one

Imenica dobije množinu kada postoji više od jedne.

and we can use the singular articles a and an

Kada koristimo jedninu dodajući a i an

when we're talking about just one of them.

govorimo samo o jednoj imenici.

But uncountable nouns are different.

Ali nebrojive imenice su različite.

They don't usually have a plural form.

One obično nemaju množinu.

You can't use a singular article with them

Ne možete ih koristiti u jednini

and you need to use quantifiers to help explain

već treba da koristite količnik da objasnite

how much of the noun there is.

koliko je nečega tu

The way that you use uncountable nouns

Način na koji koristite nebrojive imenice

in English sentences is completely different

u engleskim rečenicama je sasvim drukčiji

to countable nouns.

od brojivih imenica.

Let's just compare apple,

Hajde da uporedimo jabuku

a countable noun,

koja je brojiva

and advice, an uncountable noun.

i savjet, nebrojiva imenica.

Now I have an apple for you.

Imam za tebe jednu jabuku.

I have a piece of advice for you.

Imam za tebe savjet

How many apples do you have?

Koliko imaš jabuka?

How much advice do you have?

Koliko savjeta imaš?

I have a few apples for you.

Imam nekoliko jabuka za tebe

I have a little advice for you.

Imam mali savjet za tebe.

It's not just the noun that's important,

Nije samo imenica važna,

the type of noun affects many other words

vrsta imenice utječe na mnoge druge riječi

in your sentence.

u rečenici

So using the wrong words with the uncountable noun

Tako koristeći pogrešnu riječ sa nebrojivom imenicom

in an English sentence

u engleskoj rečenici

is a really, really common mistake.

je stvarno, stvarno česta pogreška.

And it's easy to do without realising that you're doing it.

I lako je to učiniti bez da shvatite da to radite.

Perhaps you don't realise that a noun is uncountable.

Možda ne shvatate da je imenica nebrojiva

Mistake number, two irregular verbs.

Pogreška broj dva, nepravilni glagoli.

Now these are also really common English mistakes.

To su također uobičajene pogreške u engleskom jeziku.

Difficult to master because there are no rules

To je teško svladati jer nema pravila

that you can learn to logically explain why one verb

koja možete naučiti da logički objasnite zašto je jedan glagol

is regular and the other is not.

pravilan a drugi nije.

Even though there are fewer irregular verbs

Iako ima manje nepravilnih glagola

than regular verbs,

nego pravilnih

many irregular verbs are really, really common verbs.

mnogi nepravilni glagoli zapravo su, uobičajeni.

You can't escape them, you need to learn them.

Ne možete ih izbjeći, trebate ih naučiti

Number three,

Broj tri,

subject-verb agreement.

slaganje subjekta i glagola

Subject-verb agreement is as simple as it sounds.

slaganje subjekta i glagol jednostavno kao što zvuči

The subject and the verb in English sentences

Subjekat i glagol u engleskoj rečenici

must agree, they must match.

moraju se složiti, moraju se podudarati

So why is it such a common mistake in English?

Pa zašto je tako česta pogreška na engleskom?

Even my advanced English students

Čak i moji napredni učenici

sometimes make these mistakes as well.

također ponekad prave ovu grešku.

And it's simply because

to je jednostavno zato

they've got into some bad habits.

što imaju loše navike.

They don't realise that they're making these mistakes.

Ne shvaćaju da čine pogreške.

That car looks expensive.

Taj automobil izgleda skup.

Those cars look expensive.

Ti automobili izgledaju skupo.

Paul is looking out the window.

Paul gleda kroz prozor.

John and Tim are looking out the window.

John i Tim gledaju kroz prozor.

Do those students like to eat bananas?

Zar ti učenici vole jesti banane?

Does this student like to eat bananas?

Voli li ovaj student jesti banane?

These mistakes are very easy to fix.

Pogreške je vrlo lako ispraviti.

Bad habits can be fixed but you need to see them.

Loše navike mogu se ispraviti, ali trebate ih uočiti.

So I'll explain more about this in detail

Zato ću to detaljnije objasniti

during the mmmEnglish grammar challenge.

tijekom gramatičkog izazova ummmEngleski

Common mistake number four, auxiliary verbs.

Česta pogreška broj četiri, pomoćni glagoli.

Yes, the three main auxiliary verbs in English:

Da, tri glavna pomoćna glagola na engleskom:

do, be and have.

učiniti, biti i imati.

They're very important and learning

Vrlo su važni i

a little more about them is going to help you improve

malo više učenja o njima pomoći će vam da puno poboljšate

your English grammar a lot

vašu gramatiku engleskog jezika

because the relationship between an auxilary verb

jer je odnos između pomoćnog glagola

and the main verb in an English sentence

i glavnog glagola u engleskoj rečenici

is very clear and simple.

vrlo je jasan i jednostavan.

The auxiliary verb do appears in the simple tenses.

Pomoćni glagol činiti (do) se pojavljuje u tvorbi jednostavnih vremena .

The auxiliary verb be appears in the continuous tenses

Pomoćni glagol biti (be)se pojavljuje u trajnom načinu

and also in the passive voice.

i također u trpnom načinu.

And the auxiliary verb have

I pomoćni glagol imati

appears in the perfect tenses.

se pojavljuje u tvorbi svršenog vremena.

This is one part of English that is really consistent.

To je jedan dio na engleskom jeziku koji je zaista dosljedan.

So if you're making any of these mistakes,

Dakle, ako napravite bilo koju od ovih pogrešaka,

we can fix them easily.

možemo ih lako popraviti.

So join me for the challenge

Zato mi se pridružite u izazovu

and learn more about auxiliary verbs

i naučite više o pomoćnim glagolima

and fix these common grammar mistakes.

i popravite ove uobičajene gramatičke pogreške.

Mistake number five, articles.

Pogreška broj pet, članovi.

Which one should you use?

Koji biste trebali koristiti?

When and why?

Kada i zašto?

Articles must cause the most headaches

Članovi moraju uzrokovati najviše glavobolje

for English learners.

za učenike engleskog jezika

The is the definite article,

The je određeni član,

a and an are indefinite articles.

a i an su neodređeni članovi

The difference between definite and indefinite articles

Razlika između određenih i neodređenih članova

is the difference between talking about

je razlika između govora

a specific noun and a general noun.

određene imenice i opće imenice.

If you asked me "Can you pass me a pen?"

Ako ste me pitali "Možete li mi dodati olovku?"

That means any of these pens, not a specific one.

To znači bilo koju od ovih olovaka, a ne neku određenu

But if you asked me "Can you pass me the blue pen?"

Ali ako ste me pitali "Možete li mi dodati plavu olovku?"

that only means this pen, none of the others.

to znači samo ovu olovku, niti jednu drugu.

But sometimes you don't need to use an article at all.

Ali ponekad ne morate koristiti ni jedan član.

So it's easy to see why articles are some of the most

Zato je lako vidjeti zašto su članovi najčešće

common mistakes that English learners make.

pogreške koje prave učenici engleskog jezika.

The good news is that there are some simple rules

Dobra je vijest da postoje neka jednostavna pravila

that you can follow to choose the right article.

koja možete slijediti da biste odabrali pravi član.

And I've got a few tips that I want to share with you

I imam nekoliko savjeta koje želim da podijelim s vama,

during the challenge

tijekom ovog izazova,

to help you learn a little bit more about articles

koji će vam pomoći da naučite nešto više o članovima

and how to use them.

i kako da ih koristite.

Number six,

Broj šest,

prepositions,

prijedlozi,

words like in, on, at, by, with,

riječi poput u, na, kod, po, sa

for - you get my point.

za - shvatili ste

These words, they help to give information about time,

Ove riječi pomažu da se daju informacije o vremenu,

location and direction in English.

mjestu i smjeru na engleskom jeziku.

Just like articles may also cause a few headaches,

Kao i članovi mogu uzrokovati glavobolju,

sometimes the same preposition

ponekad isti prijedlog

can have different meanings depending on the context.

može imati različito značenje ovisno o kontekstu.

If your keys are in the car, the meaning is different to

Ako su vaši ključevi u automobilu, značenje se razlikuje

at the car.

u automobilu.

But if you're in school, the meaning is pretty much

Ali, ako ste u školi (in), značenje je prilično

the same as at school.

isto kao u školi (at).

I had a coffee at Helen's.

Bila sam na kavi s Helen (at)

That means at her house

To znači u njezinoj kući

or I had a coffee with Helen.

ili bila sam na kavi s Helen (with).

That means we had a coffee together

To znači da smo bile zajedno na kavi

but it could have been anywhere.

ali moglo je biti bilo gdje.

These tiny little words can influence

Te sitne male riječi mogu utjecati

the meaning of your English sentence significantly.

značajno na značenje vaše engleske rečenice

But they are a challenge because the rules and reasons

Ali oni su izazov jer pravila i razlozi

for using them are not always clear.

njihovog korištenja nisu uvijek jasni.

Plus, you could be thinking about the correct preposition

Osim toga, mogli biste razmišljati o ispravnom prijedlogu

that's used in your own native language

koji se koristi u vašem materinjem jeziku

but they don't translate directly into English

ali se ne prevode izravno na engleski jezik

and this can be a problem too.

i to može također biti problem.

Anyway, to get them right you need to practise

U svakom slučaju, da biste ih ispravno koristili trebate vježbati

and that's exactly what we'll do during the challenge.

i to je upravo ono što ćemo učiniti tijekom izazova.

Number seven,

Broj sedam,

we're going to talk about word order in questions.

razgovarat ćemo o redoslijedu riječi u upitnim rečenicama.

So asking questions, giving answers.

Dakle postavljanje pitanja i davanje odgovora

It's the basics of a great conversation in English,

To se osnova većeg dijela razgovora na engleskom,

in any language, really.

ustvari na bilo kojem jeziku.

But one common mistake is using the wrong word order

Ali česta pogreška je korištenje pogrešnog reda riječi u rečenici

when you're asking questions.

kada postavljate pitanja.

We can go shopping this afternoon?

Mi možemo ići u kupovinu danas?

What you are cooking for dinner?

Šta vi kuhate za večeru?

Word order in English questions is a common

Red riječi u upitnim rečenicama u engleskom jeziku je česta

grammar mistake.

gramatička pogreška

I see it a lot and I hear even more often

Vidim ih puno i čujem još češće

and another thing,

i još jedna stvar,

different types of questions in English

različite vrste pitanja u engleskom jeziku

use different intonation

koristite različitu intonaciju

so getting the structure and the intonation right

tako da je korištenje ispravne strukture i intonacije

is important if you want to sound natural

važno ako želite zvučati prirodno

like a native English speaker.

kao izvorni engleski govornik.

The good news is that English questions

Dobra je vijest da su pitanja na engleskom

are really consistent,

stvarno dosljedna,

they follow a clear structure.

slijede jasnu strukturu.

Question word, auxiliary verb,

Upitna riječ, pomoćni glagol,

subject and your main verb.

subjekt i glavni glagol.

If you remember these words in this order,

Ako zapamtite ovaj red riječi,

your questions should always be correct.

vaša pitanja bi uvijek trebala biti točna.

Mistake number eight, lucky eight.

Pogreška broj osam, sretna osmica.

The present perfect tense.

svršeno vrijeme.

Now, this tense is a challenging one.

Ovo vrijeme je izazov

There's the present perfect simple

imamo prosto svršeno vrijeme

and the present perfect continuous.

i trajno vrijeme

You can also use the words for and since

Također možete koristiti riječi za (for) i otada (since)

with these tenses to help you express information

s ovim vremenima da vam pomognu u izražavanju informacija

about time.

o vremenu

Now, the structure of a present perfect sentence

Struktura sadašnje svršene rečenice

is probably not the difficult part.

vjerojatno nije težak dio.

You probably know that there's the subject,

Vjerojatno znate da postoji subjekt,

the auxiliary verb have

pomoćni glagol imati

and the main verb in past participle form.

i glavni glagol u obliku prošlog participa

But in the present perfect continuous,

Ali u trajnom obliku

your past participle verb is been

glagolski particip je biti (been)

and it's followed by a verb in -ing.

i prati ga glagol + ing

Don't forget to conjugate that auxiliary verb,

Ne zaboravite konjugirati taj pomoćni glagol,

depending on the subject.

ovisno o subjektu

So it's confusing because this tense is about the past

Zato je zbunjujuće jer je to prošlo vrijeme

and the present at the same time.

i istovremeno sadašnje vrijeme

It connects something that happened in the past

povezuje nešto što se desilo u prošlosti i traje

to the present moment

sve do sadašnjeg trenutka

and there are a few different ways

i postoji nekoliko različitih načina

that this can happen in English.

kako se to može dogoditi u engleskom jeziku

So although it's complicated,

Pa iako je komplicirano,

it is a really commonly used tense in English

to je ustvari često korišćeno vrijeme u engleskom jeziku

so you need to understand it.

tako da treba da ga razumijete.

If you join the mmmEnglish challenge,

Ako se pridružite izazovu mmmEngleski

I'm going to explain how to use this tense in more detail

Objasnit ću detaljnije kako se koristiti ovaj oblik vremena

and help you to practise using it as well.

i također pomoći da vježbate korišćenje

Another mistake, this is number nine,

Još jedna pogreška, broj devet,

the difference between the past simple

razlika između prošlog svršenog vremena

and the present perfect tense.

i prošlog nesvršenog vremena

The present perfect is also about the past

prošlo nesvršeno vrijeme je takođe prošlo

which is confusing in itself, right?

što je samo po sebi zbunjujuće , zar ne?

So why not just use the past simple

Dakle zašto se ne koristi prošlo vrijeme

to talk about the past?

kada govorimo o prošlosti?

To understand when to use the past simple

Da biste razumjeli kada ćete koristiti prošlo vrijeme

and when to use the present perfect tense

a kada koristiti prošlo nesvršeno vrijeme

you need to think about time.

treba da mislite o vremenu

Finished time and unfinished time.

svršeno ili nesvršeno vrijeme

Last week is a good example of finished time,

Prošli tjedan dobar je primjer svršenog vremena,

it's complete, it's over.

dovršen je, gotov je.

But this week is unfinished,

Ali ovaj tjedan je nedovršen

it's an example of unfinished time,

to je primjer nedovršenog vremena

there's still more of this week to come,

još ima ovog tjedna,

it's not finished yet.

još nije dovršen

So expressions of time are really important when you're

Dakle, izražavanje vremena je stvarno važno kada

using these two different tenses.

koristite ova dva različita vremena.

Yesterday, last week, last month, 1991.

Jučer, prošli tjedan, prošli mjesec, 1991.

These are all examples of finished time.

To su sve primjeri svršenog vremena.

Time that's complete.

Vrijeme je dovršeno.

So you would use the past simple.

Znači, koristit ćete jednostavno prošlo vrijeme.

But when you're thinking about a time period that

Ali kad razmišljate o vremenskom razdoblju

is unfinished

koje nije završeno

like today, this week, this month,

kao i danas, ovog tjedna, ovog mjeseca,

my life,

moj život

use the present perfect.

koristite prošlo nesvršeno vrijeme

Again, I'll go over this with you during the challenge.

Opet, poći ću to s vama za vrijeme izazova.

Lastly, mistake number ten.

Na kraju, pogreška broj deset.

And I wonder if this is a mistake

Pitam se je li ova pogreška

that you sometimes make

koju ponekad napravite

not all the time but sometimes.

ne stalno nego ponekad

When do you use adjectives that end in -ed and -ing?

Kada upotrebljavate pridjeve koji završavaju -ed i -ing?

There is a big difference between "He looks bored."

Postoji velika razlika između "Izgleda dosadno".

and "He looks boring."

i "Izgleda dosadno".

"I am interested."

"zainteresirana sam"

or "I am interesting."

"zaiteresirana sam"

There doesn't seem to be much difference

Čini se da nema velike razlike

between these adjectives

između ovih pridjeva

but using them incorrectly in your sentence

ali koristeći ih pogrešno u rečenici

completely changes the meaning.

potpuno mijenjate značenje.

Luckily, there are some simple rules to help you

Srećom, postoje jednostavna pravila koja će vam pomoći da

remember which one is the right one to use.

zapamtite koji je pravi oblik za korištenje.

Now I want to help you improve your English
