One makes mistakes, one doesn't do them :-) I know it's really
confusing, as most languages, especially those derived from Latin, the
everyday words for make and do are the same, but in English they aren't
(he said redundantly). BTW you don't come across as someone new to
English, judging from your posts here.

When I was learning Spanish I was grateful for people correcting me. Now
I sometimes correct them :-) (and that's a language with two verbs for
"to be", which mean different things and are not interchangeable.)
