The two sets of words that really irritate me with their misuse are “less and fewer” and “infer and imply”.
I know my grammer is not the best, but Sister Stella Marie left an indelible mark on my brain (and my knuckles) and it makes me cringe when I hear these words used improperly.
I guess that makes me a grammer nazi, but I would rather be that than an illiterate boob.
Flames may now commence.
Instant internet karma.
