I just loved words from such a young age. I loved to spell. My 9th grade English teacher had us diagram sentences continually. (And introduced us to "Far from the Madding Crowd", Ivanhoe and so many more). I am still bad with gerunds and splitting predicates, but when I'm reading I shudder at some of the poor grammar... so I know even if I don't always do it right. Have we been off topic long enough now? This was fun. Stormy On Feb 1, 2011, at 7:28 PM, sheila lieberman wrote: > I was raised to get it correct not matter what. She pounded English > into me.
