Expert writing Tips

Best practice

Always ensure that the subject and verb agree in number and tense. Use "he has" instead of "he as" to maintain grammatical correctness.

Common error

Avoid using "as" in place of "has" when forming the present perfect tense. "As" functions as a conjunction or preposition, not an auxiliary verb.
