That is true...and no one has ever commented on people for whom English
is a second language. Never.
I don't think, Michel, that any of us has taken you to task for your
errors, such as they may have been...in fact, you do not EVER make
the mistakes we are speaking of. However, when people are educated
here, finish school here, and STILL can't get it right...then they
deserve to
be corrected, or at the least, commented on.
As for dog talk...it doesn't matter what the language is...puppies
do not come "out of" their sires.
