Do you think anyone reads what they write before sending it out.
These days even the newspapers need more proofreading.......and how about some of the english in conversation......or on the TV?
I wonder if the kids today know that there is the nominative case and an objective case and when to use which and why???
I cringe when I hear "me and her" went shopping !!!!!!!!!
Makes one wonder, doesn't it?????
