To save yourselve some embarassment and from being judged harshley by your piers, I reccommend that you be concientious with your correspondance. The gramatical errors may not be greivous, in fact they maybe only suttle, butt their can be those who’s opinnions of you’re intelligance will become dissapointed and they will loose respect for you and will de disatisfied and desppair at your disasterous disscourse, and will critisize and condesendingly beleive your developement has been defered, and youll be left sufficently shagrined. How many? Edited because Word fixed one. How ironnic.

Oh, what a wonderful thread! A wordsmith's worst nightmare! My biggest peeve is "irregardless." Followed closely by "I feel badly." I feel badly because I have peripheral neuropathy. I feel bad for those who have lost a loved one. Think about it - do you feel sadly, madly, or gladly? (Well, some of you just might, but that's for another thread.) The "i before e" rule: I before E except after C, or when sounded as "A" as in neighbor and weigh. I add: or when the word was originally German. >>edited because my keyboard has letters that don't show up when I hit them, and my screen reader doesn't sound "wrong" when it reads the word.<<

How about "My bad." ? Argh! And what's this with dropping adverbs in the rubbish bin of semantics? "Well" ("I'm well, thank you.", not "I'm good." - unless they taste good? What's that about?). "You're going too slowly." Etcetera. Argh lol.

quote: ORIGINAL: MaamJay Around here, it just has to be consentual instead of consensual! AGH!!

So while consensual is the correct form, I suppose consentual isn't entirely wrong. But if we're not talking law then it should be consensual. (Yes, as you can tell I'm really a librarian. I gotta research everything!)
