I find your wallpaper hypnotizing.<br /><br />Some highlights from Scranton Pennsylvania speech. <br /><br />When declaring that something belongs to you - that's mayan. <br /><br />When in speech you are looking for a response to your opinion on something. Such as - The price of porketta is out of control, heyna?<br /><br />I understand heyna to be like saying huh, or don't you think, or even though I'm a moron can you agree with me out of fear that heyna really means something else.<br /><br />Tree is the number after two.<br /><br />Compound use - A couple two tree.<br /><br />Bat Tree is what you put in a flashlight. I honestly don't know where the bats sleep around here.<br /><br />Dajeet. You'll never guess this one....<br />Dajeet? No ju? Ok lets go get some food.

I used "sneak peek" on my blog but I was sure I saw "sneak peak" on other occasions also. So I was a bit confused. Although, as you stated if you divide the word and know its meaning you can easily tell it's "peek". Thanks so much for clearing that out!<br /><br />LauraLaurahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10777091585600922169noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7849311.post-13982774313903978212010-01-29T14:30:53.373-05:002010-01-29T14:30:53.373-05:00sneak peak = undercover orgasm.

I may not be completely in control of the English language, but I'm hoping that you get my drift. I'm Danish - but I love the English language and I hope that you're not offended :o)Lavender Gardenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12711971911532262992noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7849311.post-37590266036848480932010-01-26T11:00:18.715-05:002010-01-26T11:00:18.715-05:00I have several grammar obstacles to overcome but p...I have several grammar obstacles to overcome but perhaps my most ridiculous and personally infuriating (keep in mind this is something I do, and as far as I've been able to discern only I do so I am really only infuriated at myself) is that I have a roll problem. Or a role problem. For some reason I consistently, while typing, use the food stuff every time I need to right the word role/roll. This really confused my adviser and some committee members when I would write something had a scientific roll in cancer or some such. Luckily spell check can't correct that kind of error and my eye for some reason rarely notices it. I guess it is an unhealthy love of bread stuffs.Jereganohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15759016681039738518noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7849311.post-57244056987234125602010-01-26T09:54:03.402-05:002010-01-26T09:54:03.402-05:00The one that gets me is when people use "less...The one that gets me is when people use "less" when they ought to be using "fewer."<br /><br />And the dreaded "lose"/"loose" conflation.
