Question: is the following sentence grammatically correct or
incorrect?
We found the toy that belonged to the neighbor in the attic.
This sentence (or a sentence very close to it) was on my last English grammar
quiz. If you answered that this sentence is correct as written, then
congrats! You have just joined the ranks of the illiterate people!
The sentence is wrong. Apparently it is damn wrong.
The fact I even have to rant here is wrong. This is absolute crap.
I flunked the stupid quiz because of sentences like this! And,
damn it, I am pissed.
That and the fact I am a girl and it is so wonderfully that time of the
month. But, that's another story inertly.
And just to add icing to the cake, when I took a deep breath to compose myself
before I blew up in her face, she took a step back. She said she did not
want to get sick. Did not...want to... get sick. Damn it!
Does that woman think I'm sick or something just because I'm getting upset!?!?
All I did was exhale and she stepped back as if I had the plague! She was
on the funkin other side of the damn room! All because she
did not want to get sick!!!!! Hell-o! Common sense calling
here! I just had a physical. I am not sick. Who the *several explicative
that shall not be repeated* does she think she is?! Hell - she's a
freaking Miss. Frizzle clone, only not as nice and seriously not as cool.
....Okay, I think I'm done ranting now... Leave comments if you'd please.
Oh, PS: If you ever go to CCCC, do not, I repeat do NOT take Joyce M. Miller's English
class(s). She has more than one, so be careful.
