[Q]Out schools ceased to teach English spellong or grammar[/Q]

YES! I noticed that I has misspelled "grammar" the minute I sent that last post.

What do you mean your schools have ceased to teach English spellong? That's as ridiculous as making Ebonics a standard form of English that should be taught in American school too!

It's interesting how languages evolve. I love the sound of Middle English, but the meaning of many of the words elude me.

Which brings me back to my question: What did "Early English" sound like? Or did they just grunt at each other during the week and then listen to Latin on Sundays? No wonder the cathedrals of Europe have gargoyles and grotesques. Maybe the people back then actually looked like that! LOL!

Thanks for the support. I appreciate it.
