I was never very good with grammer; there are rules upon rules with a whole list of exceptions. And proof is this thread and done get me started with what “sounds right”. What sounds right is what you often hear, which can be technically wrong.
Math is so much easier; the integral of sin x always is cos x.

What drives me crazy is the horrendous syntax:

So ...
my sister went to town and
me went to town.
