#97 Our favourite mistakes: Grammar

▶️ Please translate the following sentence:
Qaytib keling, sizni sog’indim.

Perhaps you think it is:
Please come back, I missed you!

Well, it should be:
Please come back, I miss you. (every day)
Please come back, I’m missing you. (right now)
Please come back, I’ve been missing you. (before and still now)

Why?

❗️ There’s no good reason why this sentence should be in the past tense as it expresses a present feeling.
