Common Mistakes to Watch For

• Using 'between' with only one object instead of two or more, such as writing 'between the table' rather than 'between the table and the chair' to show position.
• Mixing up coordinating and subordinating conjunctions by joining two complete sentences with 'because' and a comma the way you would use FANBOYS like 'and' or 'but'.
• Splitting correlative pairs by using only half of them, like writing 'either we walk' without the matching 'or we ride,' which leaves the sentence unbalanced and confusing for readers.
