Saying 'fix' when you mean 'correct' is not 'incorrect', it is just informal.

@mayaphenomenal,
It would help to have some context on what he/she is trying to correct.

@dalehileman,
Sure. The English language is very flexible just as long as the message is clear.

@cicerone imposter,
Very flexible, and I hope Maya ignores the example that comes to mind.

My cat wasn't broke, but I had it fixed, anyway.

This is the kind of sentence that can confuse non-English speakers.

Can a cat be broken unless it's made from porcelain or glass? Wink

@cicerone imposter,
That's exactly why I expressed the hope that Maya would disregard it. But, you knew that.
