All-Star Grammar Thread - Have At It

can't even count how many times I've seen "oh he past away"

Typically said by the same people that are sorry for the " lost"

A lot of people liked that show, but I never got intuit.

Just saw a Fierce Board sidebar, and it says "Top Shimmy's for the Week"

That was probably me. :/ Also, I just wrote descent (like descent a skunk) for decent!

Opps, I bragged when I made the top shimmy list for my first time. I thought I misspelled shimmy's v shimmies! My grammar is weak, but I am able to laugh about my mistakes. :)

It drives me nuts when I see "I would of but..." or "I should of..."
I would HAVE
I could HAVE
I should HAVE

Also, the act of demonstrating something for an audience is PERFORM not preform. The amount of times I've seen people spell it "preform" on here is unbelievable.

"Of" instead of "have." When I see "could of" I want to scream. That is hands down the one that gets me most, especially because even some of my most intelligent friends do it! I don't understand.

Great minds think alike.:p This is absolutely the most annoying thing in the world to me. I don't know how highly educated, intelligent adults don't know this - especially since I can't imagine they haven't seen it pointed out in at least 57 memes a week!

Dear everyone: If you use "could of" "should of" or "would of" ever, STOP. Just stop it. It's not a thing. It doesn't even make sense, let alone the fact that it's not correct grammar!

I know when I say it, it may sound like "could of," just because I speak quickly. However, I absolutely use HAVE when I write.

It is because of the contraction--could've, would've, should've.

here and hear.

I came here to hear the President's speech.

I saw an IG post today and the caption read "We are hear!!" There are just some cases where you can't blame auto correct.

I have a feeling I break this rule more often than I'm aware of - even though I know it's "have" and not "of". I catch myself doing it a lot and I'll correct it but I know sometimes one will slip through. I write/type almost exactly how I talk (my teachers hated it when I had to write essays.... ) and I say "could of" when I talk so I blame that but I try to be mindful of what I type. It's also why I start sentences with "And" a lot and I have run on sentences in my posts. I'm working on it though! :P
