Nataly 38 #12 September 1, 2010 Quote Not around these parts missy... it's them there yanks messing with our language again ... Blame Webster - he was the guy who decided to "standardise" (ie: Americanise) English... But I hope you're not including me in "our" - since English is not my mother tongue, and since Canadian English is a weird hybrid between American and British English... Well, I guess that gives me the liberty to bastardise the language quite a lot!! And stop with "1 time" it's ONCE, and "2 times" is TWICE - come on people learn to speak the Queen's English*** Couldn't resist!!
