I have been meaning to do this for ages and another thread has reminded me.
Just thought it would be nice to have a long running thread where we could ask questions from those who are good at English.
I know we can google but thats not the same as knowing somebody has helped you or that you have helped somebody else.
There are lots of reasons why some people aren't so good at English and some people carry on obliviously through life, whilst others like to learn.
So if you want to help or have a question I thought it would be nice for us to join together rather than just being outraged that some don't know the correct word, spelling, or definition.
Not sure if this will take off, but I have a question.
Fair? Fare? Fayre? I'm not sure if all are correct spelling, nor where they are used. I have seen all three for school/ church events, they can't all be right.
