@Lustig Andrei,
Quote:You're not seriously going to tell me that you don't realize that there's a wide gulf between spoken language and the written transcription?
You lack a basic sense of honesty, Merry. Here you are with a new song and dance after stating the following just a few posts earlier. You wrote, "I do most of the time".
Quote:Certainly people of a certain age (read: moi)who are familiar with what you refer to as 'prescriptive' grammar and with the English language in general tend to use the proper case. I do most of the time. I suspect that so does Roberta as well as other literate souls here on A2k.
I'm the one that drilled it into your blockhead that there is a major difference between SWE and speech. You were one of the ones yucking it up with the other peevists about how people just didn't have a firm grasp of the language.
