Princess Leia Posted April 3, 2017 Share Posted April 3, 2017 Indeed! The correct use of the apostrophe is a dying art. It makes all the difference between knowing your sh!t and knowing you're sh!t... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cat tails Posted April 3, 2017 Share Posted April 3, 2017 There was one artist in France who painted over all sort of graffiti and repainting it on top, but then actually legible. Found that very amusing too! (I always reread all my posts... too afraid I make a stupid mistake... which I know I still make) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CatieB Posted April 6, 2017 Share Posted April 6, 2017 My sons in Bristol but his grammar is pants so I know it wasnt him. He could do with going round with this guy - might learn something So could I, my grammar is shocking. I just don't get it, apostrophes or commas. Usually have to ask my 12 year old where they go. In my last essay at uni, the tutors comment was something like- I am so frustrated by your use of English and punctuation, you would be in the next mark bracket but for this! I did laugh because I know it's true but don't know how to change it. In my defence I'm very good at maths if anyone needs a hand . Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Dogmother Posted April 6, 2017 Share Posted April 6, 2017 Well done that man! I want an apostrophiser. Me too - I read that article and applauded him If you want to improve your use of correct language, then read more good quality literature; you will learn by example.
