Speakers of non-English languages, what common mistakes do native speakers make that drive you crazy? - eviltoast

For example, English speakers commonly mix up your/you’re or there/their/they’re. I’m curious about similar mistakes in other languages.

    In Dutch, the only (one) is “de enige”. People often use “de enigste”, which actually means the cutest. Enig -> enigste.

    “Ik ben als enigste over” “Ja, schattig ben je zeker”

    "“Ich bin der Einzigste, der noch übrig ist” “Ja, du bist wirklich süß”

    “I’m the only one left.” “Yeah, cute you sure are”
