Another thing I can't stand is when the letters e and i are switched in certain words, like "thier" (their) and wierd (weird).
LOL...I can go on and on about this. Now that I think about it, most of my pet peeves have to do with grammar/spelling. I mean, it only takes 10 seconds to go to Dictionary.com and check the spelling of a word when you're not so sure how it is spelled!
I'll shut up now.  |
Dotty, we should probably start a subset forum called mygrammar.com. LOL.
First off, I'm not sure dictionary.com would help because first, one has to know the proper "usage" of a word before one can spell it...especially in the case of something like there/their/they're.
Also, my English teachers in school were WRONG. It ISN'T always "I before E except after C!"
