my point indeed, my fellow Canuk.

... but does french evolve? Great reply. I ain't never gonna try to unwrong nobody again. This-a-here's bin fun. thanks to all who's piped up.

...and yet, the Oxford Concise has no entry for "learnt". I would consider that source as the benchmark for the language. Derivations are often merely regional anomalies or bastardizations that have come into common usage. Thus, they are noted but still incorrect. I know I'm just being a dink. Sorry. -one from the colonies-

"learned" is the past tense of learn.
