I remember my French teacher saying "You English always say this one".

 

Why?

Where

- Where are my car keys?

 

Were

Wear

- Who wants to wear my Rolex?

Copywriting -a great sub-forum on WDF!

I have tendency to start my sentences with "Well." I guess it's just a bad habit, but it's a good word.

 

Well.

Wear

- Who wants to wear my Rolex?

Ware(s)

- I wish my wife would stop selling her wares on the street corner

Well, So, But, How.

 

"Complicators".

1. The

 

2. It

 

3. Yes

 

4. No

 

5. lol

Ah, I was gonna say 'THE' but it's been said. So I'll say 'AND' and 'NOT'. Also a couple of things I remember from school days;

 

There's no H in H

 

I before E except after C, their's an exception.

 

The most important word is "No" - or that's what the prosecutor hinged his case on in my trial anyway!

 

And seriously... there is a copywriting forum here!!!!!

"Please"

 

and

 

"Thank you"

 

These cost nothing, but pay dividends.

 

oh and "excuse me" and "pardon" need to be put back in the dictionary.

Your. You're.

 

Your grammar is scaring me.

 

You're in desperate need of a grammar lesson.

 

 

Our. Are.

 

Our house, in the middle of our street. (hands up who didn't think I'd be old enough to know that song. )

 

Are you pulling my leg?

"Thank you" is the most important word/phrase in the English language that doesn't get used often enough.

"facetious"

 

This has become a facetious thread.

 

One of my favourite words, not least because I'm never sure if I'm using it correctly

Precarious and hovel are some two of my favourite words. I used them around my housemates when I was in halls and the first time they were stumped as to what they meant. My mum uses all sorts of strange words that my grandma used, I guess it's a family thing .

Of course it's important in any language to learn what not to say. Some examples:

 

women to men

"Discharge", "Marriage", "Feelings"

 

Men to women

"threesome" and, quoting a scene from Scrubs:

 

Dr. Kelso: "Anal"

Dr. Reid: "That's not a dirty word sir"

Dr. Kelso: "Try telling my wife that"

 

who?

what?

when?

where?

why?

how?

But Dr. Reid is a woman!! And an incredibly sexual and attractive woman at that!

Quoted for truth!

Bed.

 

noun: My bed is empty.

 

verb: I would love to bed Dr. Reid.
