- In a previous article, tguez@jade.tufts.edu (Name) says:
-
- >If your brain would of been working as good as your mouth (or should I
- >say your finger) then you would of noticed tguez@jade.tufts.edu!
-
- Sigh.
-
- 1] Save your flames for alt.flame.
- 2] "good" is an adjective, not an adverb. Brains don't "work good" they
- "work well."
- 3] "would of" is a syntactical nightmare. "would have" is correct.
-
- tguez asks "should I say your finger[?]" No, you should not say my
- finger.
- My conclusion is that jade.tufts.edu is not an English speaking
- university.
