I just wanted to extend a big welcome to all the new members and a thank you to all of you who have contributed your pet peeves. They are all so true and obnoxious!
In case anyone wants to create a blog, I've made you all editors!! Share the pain. :-)
I am going to start posting blogs on occasion that have helpful grammar tips or explain difficult constructions or rules. Anybody is welcome to do the same.
about i judge poor grammar
Plainly and simply, this group is for those of us who judge others when they use poor grammar. It happens a lot on GOLO!
We can excuse the occasional typo or even the misspelling of difficult words, but consistently poor grammar is unacceptable to us! Subject-verb agreement is just proper etiquette. Punctuation is not against the law! Don't know the difference between adjectives and adverbs? You don't belong!
This is all in good fun of course. :-)
Other pet peeves:
Lose vs. Loose
Your vs. You're
It's vs. Its
Effect vs. Affect
They're, Their, There
i.e. vs. e.g.
Lie vs. Lay
Then vs. Than
"Would of" instead of "Would have"
Breathe vs. breath
Do you have other pet peeves? Need an explanation for something? You've come to the right place. Let it out...
