For my English homework I have to do an investigation into language

- Answer this from your own experiences please.
- By correcting language, I mean mispronounciations or being lazy with words (like not saying the 't' in 'water' for example).

Cheeers guys for helping me out

Erm, it's usually me correcting other people. I don't do things such as missing the 't' in water.

I can't imagine anyone outside of selected areas of the UK having a problem with the 't' in water :p

Also, don't worry about failing english in school. If your curriculum is anything like ours then it is entirely bullshit and has absolutely no relation to your ability to speak/comprehend the language. I failed highschool english and I now have a Diploma in IT, BSc Computer Science and I'm currently studying BEng Mechatronics Engineering. It didn't hinder me much.

P.S. Father

Mothers, always. The speech areas of the brain are more developed in women, scientifically proven fact, that's why women spend waaaaay more time talking than men do. At least that's the excuse science has given them for racking up such fucking huge phone bills for us men to pay /sexism

Mom was the grammar nazi in the house. Dad's grasp of the mother tongue was quite poor.

Edit: Probably why they got divorced. ZING! Thanks folks...I'll be here all week. Try the veal. Be sure to tip your waitress.
