Your input on my grammar also shows that you are following what is called "prescriptive" grammar on how people should use grammar (very much of that Oxford grammar stuff is about that and not how people are using it).
I see, so what you're saying is: Yes, you corrected my grammar in to how it should be used, but that's not actually how people use it?

In a word: Hogwash.

Nobody is using 'but' as a coordinating conjunction. Nobody is using the word convenient in place of the word comfortable. Nobody is using any of the grammar that you did intenionally, and if they are they are as wrong as you were to use it!

Yes, language evolves. It is fluid and it changes. It doesn't mean it is correct to say "such a more" or conscious in place of confident!

And those 6 mistakes were from just a few posts on this thread, a glance at your many other posts I'm sure would reveal more, but the point has already been made.

CELTA/DELTA level doesn't make you an expert really, or does it?
Nope, but then I never claimed it did. I am constantly learning, I study in my spare time and I find teaching to be a constant source of personal growth.

That said, my English is still better than yours!


Still laughing?
Actually, yes!
