For example, English speakers commonly mix up your/you’re or there/their/they’re. I’m curious about similar mistakes in other languages.

    It’s an easy rule, yes. It’s also an easy one to overlook if you’re not paying attention.

    “Word je blij?”, but also “wordt je moeder blij?”.

    It’s not like people don’t understand the rule. No native Dutch speaker would say “Loopt jij?”
