Way to go! You know not to trust the MS Grammar Check and you know "no" from "know." Now, go forth and spread the good word (or at least, the proper use of apostrophes).

All those grammar mistakes drive me crazy! Grammar was very important back when I was in school. You would pretty much never see a mistake in a printed publication and if there was one -- even a so called "little one" -- people would write the editor and point out the error! The one I hate the most is the 's being used incorrectly.
Stepping down from soapbox...

i can't believe i let typos slip in a post about grammer. but hey, that sounds like me doesn't it. I thank the Mancuso's for being Loyal to the Nation.

thedollymama said...

That's g-r-a-m-m-a-r. And I don't think Mancusos should have an apostrophe s.

What have you started?

the editor said...

I got a 90%....what's up with question 10???

The National Scribe said...

what was the question?

Anonymous said...

10. ____ coming to ____ party?
Whose, your
Who's, your
Whose, you're
Who's, your


notice that the second and fourth answers are identical.

Elliott Allstars said...

It probably doesn't even matter what the answer was...I'm just not the top grammer queen...oh well, I'll just turn to you Jenn!

Anonymous said...

the two identical questions are the correct ones. i wonder if it mattered which correct answer you chose to have it counted correctly?

the editor said...
