Damn! Now how did I know that if there was something to do with correcting grammer my name would be up there somewhere?

Although the first post lesson looks a little babyish but I'm all up for it. Bring on the lessons!!

Off topic...

Deepak...

You remember when you used to type like this:

And sum day.................I'm going to bang all ya chicks.................................Cause I'm the best looking cat here................hands down.....................Right, A.....?


LMFAO...I mean, you didn't say that...But...Man, I remember them days...We ALL have come a long way, haven't we..?

LMAO.. never would I say that man but yeah I remember those days. I was new to the whole forum thing. I used to write it out as though I was chatting with someone and after being pointed out, I changed my ways. I have learnt ALOT from this place man. Thats one of the main reasons I'm around here. I get to learn so much out of this place which has helped me in more ways then one.

I have seen this place grow, as I bet you have too man. Wouldnt trade this place for the world...

i spend too much time on here as it is,.. and only hit the grammar when it counts. if i edited all my grammar, i would not be able to be active on the forum here at work. so, you want me here, or you want me to og on every other week and spellcheck my self?

as it i, i make sure my hebrew is clear,.. standardized English is arbirtary, and

ARGH! It's 'Notepad'!
(see, I'm being very careful not to be gramatically incorrect - spelling doesn't count, right?)

QUOTEA:  
If I could post every sentence you've ever written that ends in an ellipse, I would.

Well, since this is a grammar thread, and since I need to post something on this forum once in awhile, here goes:

The punctuation figure you refer to is not an ellipse, it's technically called "ellipsis points" and is always three periods " ... " separated from words on either side by a single space. Ellipsis points, which are commonly called simply "ellipsis," are used to indicate the absence of words that would make a phrase a complete sentence, or an abrupt change of thought, lapse of time, or incomplete statement.

More formally, the ommision of words necessary to complete a grammatically correct sentence, but not necessary to connote the meaning of the sentence, is called an ellipsis. For example, writing "Please reply, if possible." instead of "Please reply, if it is possible. " is an ellipsis in the truest grammatical sense. It comes from the Greek "elleipsis" which literally means "defect."

Okay, I'm back!

Thanks Ike! Great post.

I really like the fact that we all.....hey, I'm not wearing any underwear.
