To suggest that people use this time to learn the difference between..

[LidlDonkey]

Your and you're
Their, they're and there

And when to use an apostrophe.

Poor spelling and grammar can actually hold you back in life. There are simple rules for their/there/they're why not spend this 'extra' time we've been given to improve ourselves? I read job applications and CVs where these errors have been made and all other experience being equal I select candidates based on this type of knowledge, especially if the job will involve written communication.

what does discrete mean?

Discrete means separate.

If it's such a 'fun' thread then why write it in such a patronising way? For the traffic?

Knowing that some people DO struggle with SPaG and get ripped apart for it. Being disingenuous about it doesn't make it any less hurtful.

Oh do fuck off dear, as a front line medic I'm a bit busy at the moment (day off today). I went to a failing inner city comp & wasn't diagnosed with dyslexia until half way through my training, doesn't seem to of held me back.
Can I suggest you do a bit of research into literacy privilege and also being a decent human being that doesn't mock people who find different things difficult to you?

@munchbunch12 it means separate.

And saying "DH and I" to try and sound posh even when it's completely wrong.

Like "DH and I's house" or "he sent an email to DH and I" or "she was really rude to DH and I".

Just no!

I wouls but I've got a chester draws wot needs sorting.

See also 'weary' and 'wary'.

Oh and "I need to loose weight", no you don't

I think you’ll find pedants’ corner has an apostrophe.
Off now to colour code my sock drawer.

You cant really go no where’s from here can you OP..?
Thanks for the larfs tho.

"In regard to" and "with regard to".

NOT "with regards to", which makes me unreasonably furious whenever I see it written.

Chose and choose
Lose and loose
Borrow and lend
Specific and the Pacific

Would have and not would of 🤯

Oh, the poor grammar pedants.

There, their, they're.

You have been pacifically asked not to post about this before.

How about you rise off your arse and do something bloody useful like volunteer for NHS.
Frontline NHS here, on a day off, we had to transfer two pregnant women to ITU over weekend so don't sit in the comfort of your house and come out with this shit idea.
have a fecking lorry load, you are a bloody disgrace

bought and brought

Can I add boarder and border as that's making me feel quite stabby at the moment.

I don't care what people do as long as they don't write 'lose' as 'loose'.

OP you could use this time to retrain as an English language teacher to school children so you never have to post a post like this again?
(unless you already are one in which case yikes for you)

Not grammar, but use of the word 'literal' or 'literally'.

Although I do love some of the examples of how it is used.

"The world is your literal oyster' was my favourite

How do you feel about people starting a sentence with “and”?

That was my immediate thought too 😂

Thanks Gingersausage and Pelleas
