Grandma Lois has been writing short stories for as long as she can remember.  She also wrote a children\u2019s book, Tom the Mouse<\/a>, a story that has been passed on through the generations of her family.  She is grandmother to six grandchildren and ten great grandchildren. She loves traveling with all of them.<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n

Let\u2019s talk about the word \u201clike.\u201d  I\u2019m sure you\u2019ve like noticed the number of times a young person like uses the word as a verbal placeholder, often like several times in one sentence.  It\u2019s annoying, but we\u2019ve come to accept it. We old folks even find ourselves doing it.  Regarding legitimate uses of the word \u201clike,\u201d because I\u2019m old school, I use \u201clike\u201d to compare things, but not to give examples. \u201cA cucumber is like a zucchini in shape\u201d shows comparison. When giving examples, some people would say \u201cShe grew several vegetables, like cucumbers.\u201d I would say \u201cShe grew several vegetables, such as cucumbers.\u201d To me, using \u201clike\u201d in this case suggests that the vegetables she grew are similar to cucumbers, when the person actually means that cucumbers are among the vegetables she grew.  Because of current usage, I\u2019ve come to accept using \u201clike\u201d in this case, but I still believe \u201csuch as\u201d is more accurate.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

People may be proud of themselves when they use the word \u201cwhom\u201d instead of \u201cwho.\u201d  Many believe that if it comes in the middle of a sentence, it will be \u201cwhom.\u201d  This isn\u2019t always the case.  If the word is a subject instead of an object, no matter the location in the sentence, \u201cwho\u201d is used.  An example is: \u201cShe is the one who carries the flag.\u201d In this case, \u201cwho\u201d is the subject. \u201cWhom\u201d is the object when saying \u201cThe person whom I met carries the flag.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Recently, I\u2019ve noticed that television actors will begin a sentence with \u201cyeah, no,\u201d which makes no sense. When I first mentioned this to my daughter Michelle, she wasn\u2019t aware of the trend, but after I told her about it, she began to notice. Now, while watching television, Michelle and I have fun counting the number of times people begin sentences with \u201cyeah, no,\u201d and the count is really up there. You may not remember hearing this expression, but now that I\u2019ve told you, be ready for it and you\u2019ll be surprised how often it\u2019s used. Another sentence starter is \u201cI mean,\u201d which should<\/em> indicate that an explanation of what you just said is forthcoming.  If you haven\u2019t yet said anything, what are you clarifying?  When I watch America\u2019s Got Talent<\/em>, I\u2019m always surprised when Heidi Klum doesn\u2019t<\/em> begin a sentence with \u201cI mean.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n

\n
\"\"<\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\n

For some reason that I can\u2019t understand, the word \u201cgood\u201d has become verboten.  Instead, people substitute the word \u201cwell.\u201d  When asked \u201cHow are you,\u201d the response will probably be \u201cI\u2019m well, thank you,\u201d which is a fine answer if the person is inquiring about your health. However, if the person is asking about your general well-being, the answer should be \u201cI\u2019m good, thank you,\u201d which for generations was the response given.  I have no idea why the word \u201cgood\u201d grew out of favor.  Some people have really gone overboard using \u201cwell\u201d instead of \u201cgood.\u201d  Following are examples of instances when \u201cwell\u201d was used erroneously when the word should have been \u201cgood.\u201d During the CBS show Sunday Moring<\/em>, an interviewer asked \u201cSo it\u2019s very well to say . . .\u201d In a scene from a period movie, while looking at a pair of shoes in a shop window, Maggie Smith said to a young lady, \u201cI think those blue shoes would look very well on you.\u201d Later, in speaking about a young man, she said, \u201cHe is very well to look at \u2013 very well indeed.\u201d You\u2019d think that the writer was forbidden to use the word \u201cgood.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

I believe it\u2019s time to invent a new word for grown offspring.  I think \u201cchildren\u201d should refer only to individuals under 18 years old.  When I fill out forms in the doctor\u2019s office, in the section about emergency contact, where it says \u201cRelationship to patient,\u201d one option is \u201cchild.\u201d I always say to myself \u201cWait a minute \u2013 Michelle\u2019s not a child.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n

\n
\"\"<\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\n

I\u2019d like to talk about redundancy \u2013 using two words that mean the same. Some examples are \u201ctiny little candle,\u201d \u201cfinal conclusion,\u201d and \u201cmerge together.\u201d  \u201cTiny\u201d and \u201clittle\u201d mean the same, as is the case with \u201cfinal\u201d and \u201cconclusion\u201d and \u201cmerge\u201d and \u201ctogether.\u201d Then there are times when an unnecessary word is added. One that really bothers me, which we see everywhere, is \u201cfor free.\u201d  Why not just \u201cfree\u201d? \u201cBuy two mustache combs and get a nose-hair trimmer for free.\u201d I believe you get the nose-hair trimmer free. When I researched this, I found \u201cfor free\u201d to be slang, but, of course, acceptable. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Sometimes, rather than sound highfalutin, I\u2019ll deliberately use poor grammar. Linking verbs \u2013 is, was \u2013 are followed by nominative rather than objective nouns.  Therefore, it\u2019s correct. to say \u201cIt is I,\u201d but I just may decide to be a maverick and say \u201cIt\u2019s me.\u201d There are other times when I deliberately break the rules.  For example, I often use the word \u201cain\u2019t,\u201d knowing full well that it\u2019s wrong, but deciding it fits the mood.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

One of the most widely made grammatical errors is the incorrect usage of the word \u201clay\u201d when what is meant is \u201clie.\u201d  You can lay something down, but you yourself lie down. After much cajoling from me, my family members have adopted the habit of using \u201clie\u201d when appropriate, and they and I are definitely in the minority when we tell our dog to \u201clie down.\u201d I\u2019m on a quest to get people, medical personnel particularly, to learn to say \u201clie\u201d instead of lay.  The reason for the emphasis on the medical profession is that one thing they say often to patients is \u201clay down.\u201d  It should be \u201clie down.\u201d I\u2019m always so pleased when a nurse tells me to lie down that I feel like applauding. In a medical show I was watching, a doctor asked a patient to lay down. Not surprising.  Later, this same doctor asked the same patient to lie down.  One out of two \u2013 pretty good.  Later she said to the patient \u201cI\u2019m going to lie you down.\u201d (Head slap). Oh well, can\u2019t win them all. The doctor was \u201cplacing\u201d (\u201claying\u201d) the patient down. I\u2019ll admit that grammar can be tricky \u2014 the fact that the past tense of \u201clie\u201d is \u201clay\u201d doesn\u2019t help matters.  When people finally learn to say lie,\u201d invariably, they\u2019ll think that the past tense is \u201clied.\u201d  Just remember: today I lie down \u2013 yesterday I lay down; today I lay something down \u2013 yesterday I laid something down. If a poll were taken, I think it would be found that most people use \u201clay\u201d incorrectly when they should say \u201clie.\u201d I\u2019m optimistic enough to believe that references will not call the former \u201cacceptable.\u201d  <\/p>\n\n\n

\n
\"\"<\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\n

I always believed, and still do, that \u201cbetween\u201d is used when talking about two things and \u201camong\u201d is used for more. \u201cChoose between apples and oranges,\u201d and \u201cChoose among apples, oranges, and pears.\u201d  If you Google it, though, you\u2019ll be told that \u201cbetween\u201d can be used when discussing more than two items.  The example given was \u201cThis is between you, me, and the bedpost,\u201d a colloquialism, for heaven\u2019s sake! The same holds true for \u201cbetter\u201d and \u201cbest.\u201d When I went to school, \u201cbetter\u201d was used for two and \u201cbest\u201d for three or more.  When I Googled it, I found \u201cusing \u2018best\u2019 for two is common and understood.\u201d  So that\u2019s the criteria now. We are living in an era of what I call \u201clax language,\u201d which I attribute to laziness \u2013 as long as it\u2019s understood, the hell with rules of grammar. Nevertheless, I\u2019m adamant about some rules that I believe shouldn\u2019t be bent.  I was reading that double negatives are now acceptable because of the Rolling Stones song, I Can\u2019t Get No Satisfaction<\/em>. Really? We\u2019re going to base our grammatical rules on a bunch of aging rock musicians?<\/p>\n\n\n\n

I found a hopeful sign in all this prevalent bad grammar. Usually when a misuse is labeled \u201cacceptable,\u201d there\u2019s the caveat that it doesn\u2019t hold true for formal writing. It’s good to know that we purists can still find reading materials that are grammatically correct. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Obviously, I\u2019m frustrated by the lax language prevalent today with obvious incorrect grammar being \u201cacceptable,\u201d but I won\u2019t shed no tears.\u00a0 No, I\u2019ll just go lay down.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
