Типичные ошибки

• ✗我去了市政厅办了手续了。
  ✓我去市政厅办了手续。

  Do not use 了 twice in this sentence — one 了 after the verb 办 is enough. Remove the second 了 at the end.

• ✗请问哪里是排队的地方？
  ✓请问在哪里排队？

  Simply ask 在哪里排队 (where to queue) — 哪里是排队的地方 is unnecessarily roundabout.

• ✗我要填写这个表格纸。
  ✓我要填写这张表格。

  Use the measure word 张 for paper/forms. 表格纸 is redundant — 表格 alone is correct.

• ✗我的申请被拒绝了被官员。
  ✓我的申请被官员拒绝了。

  In a 被 passive, the agent goes immediately after 被 — 被官员拒绝了, not 被拒绝了被官员.

• ✗证明文件要盖章印。
  ✓证明文件要盖章。

  盖章 already means to stamp/seal — adding 印 is redundant.
