Thumbs down

It's incredible, 19 nonsensical, useless replies to a valid, albeit naive question. I don't get it. Why not help the person instead of criticizing typos and mistakes in grammar? The only response that was at all relevant was post #2.

Hopefully, when the OP responds to Mr. Mark's questions, we will all try to be more helpful.

Rellosk - we can sum all relevant posts he could possibly get by telling him to do a search - this question is asked on here at least once every two days...

You're right, man. I was just going to say to other posters to take it easy with the OP, but given that they started a discussion about the correct way of saying something, I thought I had to make my contribution.

I apologize for being insensitive.

Default I think the bottom line is that...

While employment opportunites are scarce in this country opportunities to perfect one's spelling and grammar in both English and Spanish abound.

hahaha, you caught a "comma splice"

If you don't know what a comma splice is, it's the attempt to join two independent clauses with a comma, but without a coordinator, i.e. and, but, or, etc..
