Lee.... How wonderful to see proper grammar on FB. We are seeing the educational decline happening before our eyes. My apologies to those that have to type and post so fast.

Some words may be technically correct, but do not have a good overall sound, and thus are rarely used in context.
Think of the word LAIN, one of the past forms of LAY.
Nobody I know ever uses the word ‘lain’, unless in a poetic sense.
