I think you meant the following:

"An avatar," Lyndon. Did you do English GCSE?

Absolutely.

If you're going to point out someone's spelling or grammatical mistakes, it's always best not to make them yourself.

I think you meant the following:

"An avatar," Lyndon. Did you do English GCSE?

Or even, "An Avatar, Lyndon. Didn't you take GCSE English?" based on the fact that Erm was insinuating that Lyndon hadn't, rather than asking if he had!

No THAT'S being pedantic!

Or even, "An Avatar, Lyndon. Didn't you take GCSE English?"

Incorrect. You meant the following:

"'An Avatar,' Lyndon. Didn't you take GCSE English?"

It's a bugger keeping track of all the quotes, but it must be done if you're really being pedantic.

I must bow down to the grammar god, Alex!

However, i am not sure about the quotation marks next to the opening apostrophe which give you a "' (Tripple ') situation

Alex LS · Post by **Alex LS** » Fri Feb 28, 2003 10:14 am

It's not an apostrophe. It's a single quote mark and used when quoting within a quote. They just happen to be the same character.

Would someone please tell me at what point correct english grammar beacame obligatory for posting on this forum?

Would everyone please note the above sentence is a question and therefore correctly ends in a question mark. I would like to highlight for the general benefit of all the following grammatical errors in the previous postings.

Questions without a question mark.

Single word sentences.

Paragraph commenced with a conjunction.

The use of miniscule for the personal pronoun.

Lyndon is a proper noun and should start with a capital.

"did u do english GCSE" should eilther be "Did you do GCSE English" or or "Did you do a English GCSE".

The words "bugger", bold type, capitals and abreviations should not be used in polite written English.

"pedantic git" is not a full sentence.

I hope that helps to clarify matters for everyone.

pedantic git is not a full sentance.

I think you'll find it's spelt "sentence".

Congratulations to MattB for spotting .....er..... deliberate mistake No.1.

Questtions without a question mark.

Single word sentances.

Lydon is a proper noun and shoudld start with a capital.

pedantic git is not a full sentance.

1. There is only one 't' in "Questions"

2. The subjects correct given name is 'Lyndon'

3. "shouldld" is quite clearly, nonsense.

4. Sentences should start with a capital letter i.e. Pedantic git is not a...etc
