The study used a survey descriptive design for data collection from a sample of hundred students from five institutes of Khyber Pakhtunkhwa. The data was collected through an elicitation test in the form of essay on given topics. The essays were checked for errors in the use of English finite verbs. The data was then analyzed by using the Surface Strategy Taxonomy developed by Dulay et al. (1982). A total of 425 errors related to finite verbs in their written compositions were analyzed. The most prevalent types of errors were the errors of misformations followed by omission errors and addition errors, followed by the least frequent errors in the form of misordering. The findings suggest due consideration of finite verbs while teaching English.&nbsp;&nbsp; </em></p> <p><strong><em>Key Words</em></strong><em>: Finite verb, L2 writing, Surface Strategy Taxonomy Omission, Addition, Misformation and Misordering. </em></p>}, number={02}, journal={`}, author={Inayat Ullah and Adnan Ahad and Muhammad Aslam Khan}, year={2025}, month={Dec.}, pages={2700–2710} }
