Don't you have any manners??? You ain't suppose to point out grammatical errors as long as you understand what the person whom made said error wanted to say. It ain't polite. Now you've humiliated the OP and made him cry. Go stand in a corner and think about what you've done!!! |
i didn't think it was a error, rather a figure of speech, and as such perfectly acceptable. Still if you think about it, it sounds rather strange to "belong" to a religion
“It appeared that there had even been demonstrations to thank Big Brother for raising the chocolate ration to twenty grams a week. And only yesterday, he reflected, it had been announced that the ration was to be reduced to twenty grams a week. Was it possible that they could swallow that, after only twenty-four hours? Yes, they swallowed it.”
- George Orwell, ‘1984’
