[QUOTE="Hound dog, post: 203672, member: 84"] Thanks for the links. :D Although it would've been nicer to share when I was still in my English classes. lol ;) Before I started kindergarden I spoke "correct" textbook type english. No one knows why or how as my family most certainly does not speak that way. But people would hear me talk in public and crowds would gather to listen to this teeny (I was very small for my age) preschooler go on and on in perfect english. Witz, I'll never be able to diagram your sentences. I can pick out the nouns, pronouns, verbs, and adjectives. Anything above that is out of my league. For someone who spoke it correctly as a child, I struggled horribly thru english classes. BUT because I once spoke it correctly........I always write it correctly when called for. I just can't tell you [B]why[/B] it has to be that way. Which is how, although most of english zipped right over my head, I still got decent grades in it. [/QUOTE]
