    Tuesday Grammar Lesson

    Some of the cretins on here could do with learning this:

    "Experience hath shewn, that even under the best forms of government those entrusted with power have, in time, and by slow operations, perverted it into tyranny. "


    Thomas Jefferson

        This is spelling, not grammar. People understand the grammatical function of the words in the list (by and large). Confusion arises because they are homophones or near homophones. Some people therefore spell them incorrectly when writing them.

            And the conclusion of today's lesson is: CUK knows best.

                  So, you're unmasked as a complete fuqtard and then fall back on the "sense of humour" card.

                  0/10 - miserable fail.
