The most common error I have seen by far on this website is not using capital letters when they are necessary in English. Not just Spanish speakers, but speakers of other Romance languages as well, Italian, Portuguese, French etc. Many people want to learn 'english', but capital letters are used in English in many situations where they are not in Spanish.

- Days of the week

- Months

- Nationalities

- Languages

- Religions

There are probably more, I can't think of them all right now.

Thanks for sharing this Diego! As you have pointed out in your previous comment, it would be really helpful to know beforehand these frequent mistakes, both English and Spanish students.

Hi Diego! I tried to analyse some of my mistakes and I wrote an extensive and unusual comment. I want to know if I can post it on my profile as long as you agree. I'd put the link of your article  because my comment is related to yours. Good job!
