My Biggest Grammar Pet Peeves by Dallas Anderson

I think the top three grammar mistakes on written papers are:

1. Using words in the wrong order.
Example: Me and my friends played night games together.
Corrected example: My friends and I played night games together.

2. Using incomplete sentences.
Example: His dog ate that food fast.
Corrected example: Wow! Chris's dog ate that food faster than a cow!

3. Not capatalizing words.
Example: my friends and i went to see toy story 3.
Corrected example: My friends and I went to see Toy Story 3.
