Here, "English" has the meaning of knowledge.
As far as I know "English" is an uncountable noun, and the determiner "how much" is used with such nouns.

As this Amish idiom pronounces it's own truth, I admit to be one who fell under this!

What this "man" is reported of doing to his elder father, in my little opinion, should be visited upon him, starting with having a 'Scrooge Night', every night of the rest of his waking worldly life, with the knowledge that when night comes, here we go again!

I do not believe in being penitent, since it is a guilt machine, and cannot truly do any good for one of these. How many of these predators are out there?


this is the part that concerns me:

-----------Come by Tanglewood Apartments on Shreveport Highway, see the blue tarp covering an entire upper floor, walk by and smell the smell of fire set by a predatory type upon his mother, a Katrina refugee!-----------
^^^^^^^^^^^^
whats this guy mean? in this very last part, at least?

So my roommate and I are on a quest to discover what the "right" answer is. One or two spaces between the period and the word at the beginning of the next sentence? Someone once told me it used to be two, but now one is becoming more acceptable. My roommate and I are both 2-space purists, but what is everyone's take on the issue?
