Not exactly grammar, but I've recenlty noticed that more and more people pronounce 'the' before a word beginning with a vowel as 'thuh' rather than 'thee', as I was taught.

For example, "'thuh' Earth" rather than "'thee' Earth".

This always sounds childish to me, kind of like Valley Girl speech.

Nah, it's just the venerable old shwa at work, like being able to spell fish "photi."

Another Hillary-ism, in addition to the flast, nasal vowels and the uhs and ya knows is her irritating use of "a" pronounced aye instead of "a" pronounced uh. As in a car, a country. A-nnoying if you ask me.
