What is the capital of Tunisia?

Are there any notable mistakes in French that are made by enough otherwise well-spoken natives that they are acceptable to all but strict grammarians?

Yes, there are, as in all languages, see for example:

Malgré que

Or pleonasms such as:

Au jour d’aujourd’hui

However, note that they are incorrect even if you may sometimes hear them. They should be seen as common mistakes.


More explanation about “Au jour d’aujourd’hui” (Thanks comments! source: academie-francaise)

Emplois fautifs

Cette formule jouant sur la redondance a une résonance familière et
plaisante. Pour parler de la journée présente ou de celle que l’on
évoque, on préfèrera dire Aujourd’hui ou Ce jour. On peut aussi
recourir à la tournure ancienne Ce jour d’hui.

Many people use the subjonctive after “après que”. We have to use the indicative. e.g.:

Wrong: Après que je sois allé chez Jules.
Correct: Après que je suis allé chez Jules.

Après que Académie française
