Erros frequentes

• ✗It was the most best trip
  ✓It was the best trip

  Best já é o superlativo de good. Não se lhe põe most à frente.

• ✗The trip was very worth
  ✓The trip was worthwhile / It was worth it

  Worth não anda sozinho com very. Diz-se worthwhile ou worth it.

• ✗I recommand this place
  ✓I recommend this place

  Escreve-se recommend, com dois emes, ao contrário do teu recomendar.

• ✗The food was very deliciously
  ✓The food was very delicious

  Depois de was vem um adjetivo e não um advérbio: delicious, nunca deliciously.

• ✗The trip was very worth it
  ✓The trip was really worth it

  Com worth it usa-se really, não very: really worth it.

• ✗I enjoyed very much the food
  ✓I enjoyed the food very much

  O complemento vem primeiro: I enjoyed the food very much. O teu «gostei muito da comida» inverte a ordem.
