Yeah, that's why I thought it would be good to put the warning that I'm in the US. However, none of the answers are pointing out US/British differences, as far as I am aware.

It's just the one word or phrase that is wrong, like in the example. I tried to include multiple variations of each answer, but none of them are a full sentence.

This is some hardcore test for me, it proves that i still need to improve my english because most of those questions is killing me. I simply can't find any mistakes in some questions, all seems normal to me =/ Still, thanks for puzzle, nice training

To be fair, these are mistakes that native English speakers make as well. But you can probably find them by Googling certain words or phrases. :)

After a serious brainstorm session, i ended up with Q10 and Q14 unsolved. I'm begging you only for one hint - the answer is single word or whole phrase?

Both Q10 and Q14 answer can be a single word

It's because you've used idioms there that some people don't know and you can't even know they're wrong if you don't know the idiom ^_^

Quite well. I am frequently correcting people's grammar around the Internet. Some people think that's rude. xD

Most of these are very easy. Some of them aren't very bad mistakes as sayings in general aren't relevant. 14 is giving me trouble though.

Thanks, I solved it, but just a note that the answer for Question 4 is really more than it should be, had me stumped on that one for a while because it wasn't accepting the obvious simple correction.
