Common Mistakes in English Grammar

You need to sign in (not sign-in) somewhere

English grammar can be quite tricky, and even native speakers make mistakes from time to time. In this article, we will explore one common mistake that people often make: the incorrect use of hyphens. Let's take a closer look at the correct usage of hyphens in the phrase 'sign in.'

When 'sign in' is used as a verb, it does not need to be hyphenated. Incorrectly using a hyphen in this context is a common mistake made by both native and non-native English speakers.

For example:

  • Incorrect: You need to sign-in somewhere.
  • Correct: You need to sign in somewhere.

As you can see, the corrected version removes the unnecessary hyphen between 'sign' and 'in.'
