Oh, for the love of language!: Punctuation, smunkuation
http://ohfortheloveoflanguage.blogspot.com/2008/07/punctuation-smunkuation.html
Oh, for the love of language! On preserving the written word. But sometimes it seems that way. Are commas really becoming optional? Hi Jack. Anything wrong with this? Yes; it should be Hi, Jack. Me: Carl bring us some tea please. Carl: My sweet tea is served. Did you have trouble following that? Commas to the rescue:. Me: Carl, bring us some tea, please. Carl My sweet, tea is served. For more fun, grab a cool drink and read this classic and delightful essay on punctuation " Notes on Punctuation. Somethin...
Oh, for the love of language!: More fun with grammar
http://ohfortheloveoflanguage.blogspot.com/2008/07/more-fun-with-grammar.html
Oh, for the love of language! On preserving the written word. More fun with grammar. It's true.I love language, but I absolutely swoon over punctuation when it's used correctly, especially apostrophes and quotes. And the classic is: I "respect" you. Right. Acid test: If you see quotes and shudder, they probably don't belong there. Show punctuation some love! I have seen people use quotes to indicate a bolded word. This typically happens if they are using a plain-text editor where bold is not supported.
Oh, for the love of language!: Intro: People like me

Oh, for the love of language! On preserving the written word. Intro: People like me. I wonder whether professional (human) editors will be needed in the future. With legions of texters inventing shortcuts (u, y, wut, sup, luv, dont, kthxbai, no, ik, idk), spelling "errors" are not only tolerated but admired and quickly propagated. And in cases where correct spelling does matter, sophisticated spellcheckers in the background supply the tedious brainwork. Y do u need 2 no? Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom).
Oh, for the love of language!: Ow, my ears!
http://ohfortheloveoflanguage.blogspot.com/2008/07/ow-my-ears.html
Oh, for the love of language! On preserving the written word. Ow, my ears! These mispronunciations kill me. (Hint: if you're not sure of the pronunciation, choose another word. That's why I avoid "banal".I really should look that pronunciation up in my favorite Big Book of Beastly Mispronunciations. Don't say " umpire waistline. This fashion style has little to do with baseball officiating. Say ahm-PEER (French pronunication) waistline. Don't say " MO-men-to. Don't say " Mos-cow. Don't say " NUKE-you-lar.
Oh, for the love of language!: So you think you can edit

Oh, for the love of language! On preserving the written word. So you think you can edit. You may be an editor if. You're the only person you've ever known who excelled in 8th-grade sentence diagramming. Your friends on Facebook send you flair and bumper stickers on grammar humor. You know the subjunctive mood, and you aren't afraid to use it. If you're so smart, take the Grammar Girl challenge. Boys can take it too). Ready for a real challenge?

For the Love of Food | Adelaide food blog: at home: out and about
For the Love of Food. Adelaide food blog: at home: out and about. Pindarie in the Barossa. Monday, 7 May, 2012 by Sarah - For the Love of Food. Early Autumn is the best time of the year in South Australia. Sunny days in the mid to high 20’s, clear sky’s and gentle breezes day after day – so perfect it feels like there’s no weather at all. And what better way to enjoy it than to lunch outside under the shade of a pepper tree with valley views. Lola found some good company and some haystacks to play on too.
Oh For The Love of GOD! | Finding God's Love in a Harsh World
Oh For The Love of GOD! Finding God's Love in a Harsh World. Thanks for dropping by Oh For The Love of GOD! Take a look around and grab the RSS feed. To stay updated. See you around!

So as we seek first the kingdom of God, which...
