Grammar Nazi

[earle]

Add using the wrong form of the verb to the list. As in 'I seen him ...." Aaaaargh!

[Chris]

I don't know nothing about double negatives... or do I?

And I didn't know the grandma nazi was on the loose again.

Point of clarification please:

Are you against "yous" as well as "use" for the second person plural [or whatever it is] I think yous is perfectly acceptable and should be encouraged

[Boonie]

Yous all dunno wot youz is torkin abowt, orright.

And I didn't know the grandma nazi was on the loose again.

I think gregb started this one back up with a blank post.

Nothing like a good whinge to get us going.

Well, yeah, but I was following on from here, where a grammar matter was raised. I was wanting to keep grammar nazi stuff on this thread, where it belongs, rather than clutter up a serious brewing thread.

Cheers,

Well, get a life and an education.
If all fails, drink more beer, it's wonderful for clarifying the mind, and improving intelligence.

[Chris]

Once again with the buffalo theory of beer.

[gregb]

Right here.

I am against "yous" "ewes" "use" and any other way you can think of to shorten the way one would address their target audience as a collective.

[rwh]

And "y'all"?

I reckon most ewe gRammer nasi dont take it far enough use should all be talkin 'Ye olde English'

[Chris]

Oh you shouldn't have done that Tipsy...

[Kevnlis]

And "y'all"?

Yes, I am also against "y'all". The 'all' is not necessary nor is the 's'. You You're Your You'll Ute etc. These are all real words, use them freely

[Pyssedas Heavy Industrial]

Hmmm Kev I'm not sure that yous is actually a shorter way of doing things - if anything it is longer.

[Kevnlis]

Shorter than saying 'you'... no. But it is shorter than properly addressing the group or person.

[lethaldog]

Not really


"HEY"
