Grammar

Thinking about run-ons I am really bad at realizing when i’m writing them. I need to try and remember to simplify my words and not just put extra words in. Unless you’re writing a 200 word limit blog and then maybe you want to add some extra words. I think it’s kind of interesting and somewhat odd that it isn’t technically wrong when we write french fry but in any other description most would notice that French is suppose to be capitalized. One of my pet peeves is when people write something and don’t even capitalize the first word of the sentence or when I isn’t capitalized. It’s helpful to look back and review where to put commas because no one really remembers where a comma goes unless it’s in a list or unless you’re a smart teacher. No one remembers even though we’ve went over this since elementary school. Another interesting thing is that verbs in English are way easier to understand than understanding verbs in Spanish. No one uses the word whom unless they are especially proper. I probably won’t use the word whom anytime soon either halfway because I would feel too ridiculously proper.

  1. Oh, good, I wondered if you all were still covering basic grammar in elementary school! Wish I was joking!
