Articles (Urdu has none)

Urdu has no a/an/the, so they get dropped or misused — the #1 Urdu→English error, same as Hindi.

from your first language

Word order (SOV→SVO)

Urdu is Subject-Object-Verb; English is Subject-Verb-Object. "I food eat" → "I eat food".

from your first language

he vs she mix-ups

Urdu وہ covers both he and she, so English gender pronouns get swapped. Choose before the verb.

from your first language

v / w sounds

Urdu و is one sound where English splits v and w — "vet" vs "wet".

core challenge

Tense & aspect

Present perfect vs past simple, continuous vs simple — English aspect is fine-grained.
