Hi Lisa,

Thanks a lot, these articles are so helpful. I guess this is what I need to hold onto my English, especially in a country that does not speak it.
I have one question here, I thought that I heard a phrase which sounds like bear a second, so is it correct ?

Thanks for all,
Hussain.

Unfortunately, one thing that annoys me, is the ignoring of the use of the comma! Please address this.

Love it! I’m the same way.. And yes, I too make mistakes when in a hurry..
One thing though (spell check would never have caught it) in your sentence that starts with “For clarity when your write your articles…. ” I think it should be “For clarity when you write your articles…. “.
Thanks for the useful info

Did you start writing ‘these little articles’ because your friends said you were annoying, or did you freinds say that you were annoying because you write these articles?

Did it annoy you that I spelt friends, ‘freinds’?

Being annoying is fun.

Pure laziness Tish. Also if you’ve been saying it for years without being corrected, all of a sudden people think it’s okay.
