How good is your English? Quiz 1

This English quiz is about mistakes English learners often make.

We’ll ask you to identify 7 common English mistakes and choose your answer before the clock stops ticking.

We then explain what's wrong and show you examples of the correct English in action. We'll also direct you to videos if you want more help with grammar and vocabulary.

In this video we look at:
- interested vs. interesting
- the mistake how long time
- the different meanings of the verbs take and last
- control vs. check
- high vs. tall
- prepositions we use with the verb pay

If you'd like to see more examples, here are links to videos on these topics:
