error vs mistake & fix vs correct
when I talk english i might make mistake, can I say error?
do I have to say make a mistake or have a mistake?
if I said something, I might ask:
am I wrong?
did I make a mistake?
do I have any error?
if I want someone to point Iout my mistakes/error
do I ask
can you please fix my mistake?
can you please correct me?
it seems that errors and fix aren't good in this context
when do you use them?

mistake is informal and fix is informal. These are most common in Daily American English.. Mistake "I made a mistake." Fix: "Let me fix my mistake."

Actually, those work in that context, almost any context, as a matter of fact.
