I think mistakes cannot be avoided but can only be minimized. We don't know everything. Even the brightest person in this world cannot say that he knows everything in such a way that he can avoid commmiting mistakes. But, mistakes can be minimized. Through experiences, we acquire learnings that can be used to avoid *some mistakes in the future.

it is impossible to avoid mistakes. Even native speakers make mistakes sometimes. My roommate is a British living in US and he told me that pleased is a verb 2 days ago.....so ....don't be afraid of making mistakes or try to avoid them ....cuz you can always draw lessons from mistakes.

Mistakes are a part of learning. :) A good way to learn from those mistakes is to keep a small notebook with you. Whenever someone corrects your English, write down the corrections in the notebook. Then read through the notebook each day so you remember the correct way to say things.

You can't. Everyone makes mistakes. Don't be disappointed, learn from your mistakes.

Mistakes cannot be avoided but can only be minimized! I will keep it in my mind firmly !
