That’s just WRONG, papa. So very wrong.

(A preposition is something you should never end a sentence with.)

The Aggie graduated from Texas A&M and decided he might get a Master’s Degree from Harvard. He takes a trip to visit the campus and goes walking around looking at all the sights. He sees a professor walking by and says “Sir, can you tell me where the library’s at?”

The professor stops in his tracks and looks the Aggie up and down. “Young man”, he says, “here at Hahvahd University, we do not end our sentences with prepositions!”

“Oh?” said the Aggie thoughtfully. Then, he said, “So, can you tell me where the library’s at, Butthead?”

Or, as a well-known English language maven once said, “Please understand that ending a sentence with a preposition is something up with which I shall not put.”
