Yeah,I just can't be botherd to read someone's speil if it has no capitals or punctuation...the odd fopar and spelling mistake is OK,but I'm not going to read it 3 or 4 times to figure out what they are trying to say.
My pet hate is break and brake,and I was soooo embarrassed the other day to read my post on another forum where I got it wrong...and there was no edit function,so everybody in the whole world could see what an idiot I was!

Oh, that I know.The shame, the shame. Of course it had to happen in this thread, in that post. Duly edited. English is a bastard language in the true sense of the word. I blame the school system - the hammering of spelling was absent when I was at high school but 10 years ago...farking double letters!
I do try...Was für blödsinnig!

I quite agree. I'm not much for poetry, but if something's worth doing, it's bloody well worth doing properly.

One fine day in the middle of the night
Two dead men got up to fight
Back to back they faced each other
Unsheathed their swords and shot each other.
To every man upon this earth
Death cometh sooner or late
And how can a man die better
Than facing fearful odds
For the ashes of his fathers
And the temples of his Gods

Another quote of the year for 2006
If a man is alone in the woods and there isn't a woke Hollywood around to call him racist, is he still white?

English has its idiosyncrasies but I dispute that it's "difficult" or hard to learn. We all seem to have managed quite well on that score, mother's knee and all that.
At least it doesn't have masculine and feminine nouns and all that shit that German involves.

that is exactly how i was proving the point and (good spotting)
Whats that star?, its the deathstar, what does it do?, it does death!

I prefer "mongrel" to "bastard", which is of course, what gives it's peculiar vigour. I whole-heartedly agree with your comments regarding the teaching of English though, I hadn't heard of the past imperfect tense until I started learning French!

Very true Master Hitcher. But isn't that coming from someone brought up learning mainly English? My household was dual-speaking so I don't really know what my first langauge but I know Afrikaans (Baby Dutch to some) is a fairly easy langauge to get the hang of.

I did wonder about that. I'm not feeling all that pedantic today - so I didn't check. Clearly I should have. Strong verbs are evil in any language. Apparently spelled/spelt and a few other verbs have irregular and standard forms coexisting - curious...

Even though it sounds like the speaker is always trying to cough something up?

I add lose and loose to that hate list, and note that you have (perhaps) made a faux pas?

Doesn´t "quote of the year" imply that there is only one of them??
