If I am mistaken, could you please to correct me.

mistaken is an adjective, not a verb


Or you could say

If I have made a mistake, could you please correct me?

Hi Matthew,

I saw your post and wanted to give you my personal opinion!


I think this is what you mean to say:  If I have been mistaken, could you please correct me?

However, it sounds a bit stilted. It sounds more natural to say:

Let me know if I have made a mistake.

Please correct me if I am wrong.
