Let us write proper English, even on the fucking web!

Last time I studied Grammar was 1964. . .I thought I should have used 'as' not 'like'

Swearing has its place, but like with LOW_IQ quickly becomes monotonous.

Gramatically incorrect Monk..sorry I couldn't resist.

The" loose" used in palce of" lose" is annoyiong ..but hey we all make mistakes on the net and I think the its a bit nitpicky to worry about every single one..

I excelled at spelling and punctuation at school..but not so now.

RELAX!!!

says AG as she picks Monk up for mistakes ha ha..Ill put this down to qwerty typos ( if you'll let me hey what?)

[Jovial Monk]

Hmmm typos might explain the odd spelling mistake but mayhaps not a grammatical one?

And yeah. . .I will snap at too much nitpicking if you don't mind?

Another misused quartet

*** Right, write, rite, wright
Right==opposite of wrong also opposite of left
Write==what you do with pen, paper & ink
Rite==ritual or ceremony
Wright==master craftsman, now obsolescent, but used still e.g. in playwright, shipwright

[freediver]

wright - craftsman, builder, wilbur

[Jovial Monk]

Hmmmm bit old fashioned usage that one, rite?

[freediver]

We still use the term playwright.

[Jovial Monk]

hehehehe yeah, about the only usage, though wright does appear in Dickens I am pretty sure. OK will add it!

[Ned Kelly]

Shipwright

[Jovial Monk]

Already added that, see the original post in this thread.
