When my little son is doing (did) something and I want to praise him or tell him that he is doing (did) it right I can use the following phrases:
- that(it) is right(correct)!
- you are doing well!
- that is the way!
- way to go!
- well done!
- success is yours!
But the question is what phrases are opposite of these. What do you think about following phrases?
- that(it) is wrong
- that(it) is not right
- that(it) is incorrect
- that(it) is not correct
- you are(were) wrong
- you are doing (you did) wrong
- you are not doing (you did not) well
- that is not the way
- you are(were) mistaken
Please let me know which of these phrases are incorrect, correct or correct but uncommon. And give me your common versions. Thanks!
