Erm, <cough>Houghton Mifflin</cough> ftwOriginally posted by TimberWolf View PostIn one of NickFitz's Monday links yesterday it says Google have given up on grammar rules as a means of checking grammer as there are too many exceptions and natural language is too dynamic. As just about every fecker who tried to make a decent grammar checker in word processors seems to have found out in mid 1995 or something. Basically if you want grammar rules you have to ask humans, and they make it up.

Some people therefore spell them incorrectly when writing them.
