Do any of you have things that you see or read that absolutely drive you crazy? One of mine, now that sounds like I have a lot, doesn't it.
Well, anyway one thing that drives me crazy is English, writing sentences, bad grammar, newspapers are forever writing sentences that make no sense at all.
This is what I have just read on a blog, "an quarterly magazine", does that make sense??????????
I don't profess to being an expert on English, I left school when I was 14 but I have done a few years at uni and I love to write but I don't get that sentence, do you suppose they meant " a quarterly magazine". I think that reads so much better. Someone has set me a challenge to complete before the end of this month, March. To write 5 blogposts so this is my second, I'm doing well as 5 days left.
This drives me up the wall too Jeanie! And it's happening in all media these days. Poor grammar and incorrect spelling just shouldn't happen considering how much auto-correct is part of our lives.
ReplyDeleteYep, it drives me mad too - wish all bloggers would do a spellcheck!!! I confess I have made the occasional booboo, but at least with blogging you can go back and check, and correct.
ReplyDeleteThanks for your comments much appreciated.
ReplyDeleteIt should be an "a", I was taught at school that an comes before a vowel so. "A bat" "an apple'.
