Common Mistake:

❌ Mistake: "He the wall paints." (Wrong word order)

✅ Correct: "He paints the wall." (Subject + verb + Object)

Why: In English, the verb must come after the subject and before the object.

❌ Mistake: "He paint the wall." (Wrong verb form)

✅ Correct: "He paints the wall." (Add 's' for he/she/it)

Why: With "he/she/it", add 's' to the verb in Present Simple.
