Education & Reference - 10 February 2007

please don't answer this unless you're ABSOLUTELY SURE.

"I wondered if anything were wrong." is a sentence I found in a reputable review book. Since anything is singular, why isn't the "were" a "was"? I don't think this is a hypothetical condition...help!

Its a cert that you will get at least five people a day leaving comments sl*gging of other peoples spelling on Answers.
Lighten up people. Its not an english exam.
I dont think mis-spelling the odd word hardly means there uneducated. As long as the person leaving the question knows what they mean, thats all that counts.

I actually used to be one of them, but recently, after some stupid twa.t mugged me and broke one of my fingers, I understand what it's like to be bad at spoelling adn grammar and I don't care. I just hate the do-gooders who say we should all be able to spell and write sentences in a grammatically correct fashion. Surelym, so long as you can get the gist of what someone is tryign to get across then it doesn't matter how they type it just so long as the point is clear.

You all get my point, right? I hatye the grammatically correct idiots who think 'chav' sjhould be eliminated from teh dictionary and who think the apostrophe shoudl have its own cult following. For goodness sake, the English language is fluid, everchanging, that's why words get added to teh dictionary in teh first place, why don't peopel understand that? And therules concerning teh apostrophe are long adn tiresome. I have an entire 200 page book on the uses and common errors of where to put it, left untouched of course.

when i say ill, i mean really ill. she might make it, she might not. odds aren't so good though. i'm 15 and my sister is 18 (nearly)

it's pretty early, so i haven't told anyone but one friend, my best friend. my head of year was talking to me about it in her office and was like i've been informing your friends on the situtation so that they can check if you're ok and she's told them near all!! i'm really annoyed even though she was looking out for me but a lot of those people aren't my friends and now the whole school is feeling sorry for me....is she actually allowed to do that if she is concerned for me or what?
