The Misuse of Verb Tenses
The correct use of the phrasal verb will make sure that people understand you. So if you buy a pair of shoes and you're limping a little bit on your friend ask you what's wrong, so oh I'm breaking out my shoes they will look at you thinking that's a little bit strange. It should be I am breaking in a new pair of shoes. The misuse of verb tenses is something that can happen quite easily, particularly with their beginners,. But it also happens with people at more advanced levels at intermediate or upper intermediate level. You've got to be really really careful with that.
