[QUOTE="bluumz, post: 9710813, member: 649"]I grew up in the US, where the English language is often sloppy! But I had an English mother who spoke "properly" (despite being of the working class) and I went to a Catholic elementary school whose nuns banged on about grammar, sentence structure, etc. Nevertheless, I often become lax with my speech and writing... I blame these modern times, LOL. :rolleyes: After all, if one wants to be fully understood, one must speak like the natives! :D[/QUOTE]
