Community TutorA common mistake in English is using *"I am agree"* instead of *"I agree."*
Why it's wrong:
In English, "agree" is a verb, and we don't need the verb "am" before it.
Correct:0p- *I agree0.* (This is the correct sentence.)
Why the mistake happens:
This mistake happens because in some languages (like French or Spanish), the verb "to be" is used with certain verbs in the present tense, but in English, "agree" doesn’t require an auxiliary verb.
