The Grammatical Game!

Recommended Posts

Here is a not-so-classic game. Ok, it's actually brand new and I made it up. The basics - try to post in here, making as few grammatical and spelling errors as possible. Those who post the most, point out the most errors, and make the fewest errors do the best. Get picky, point out everything, no matter how extremely small. Yes, sorry, this has nothing to do with Rush or music! It's still fun, though! This is one word game that I'm actually a little good at. cool.gif Good luck!

 

So, how many errors were in there?

The only one I can be sure about is the absence of a comma after "brand new."

I believe the comma after "brand new" is not required to be grammatically correct,it depends on whether you subscribe to the use of the "Oxford comma" or not: a comma before an "and".

If I made any grammatical errors, I'd be failing the game! The point is to not make any errors. If my personal checking is correct, then the amount of errors I made in the first post is...

 

0!

Better English grammer would be the following:

 

This is one word game at which I am somewhat accomplished.

 

 

DON'T END A SENTENCE WITH A PREPOSITION!!!

There should be a colon after "The basics," I think.
