What is a "solecism"?
A solecism is a mistake in language use that occurs when the rules of grammar, syntax, or style are not followed. This can involve errors in sentence structure, word choice, or agreement between subjects and verbs. For example, saying "He go to the store" instead of "He goes to the store" is a solecism because it does not follow proper verb agreement. Solecisms can make sentences sound awkward or confusing, and they may distract from the intended meaning. While they are often considered errors, solecisms can also reflect regional dialects or informal speech patterns that differ from standard language conventions.
