Why not learn from the best?

Poor grammar not only makes you look stupid—it can get in the way of your career!

Even highly intelligent people with a lot of "horse sense" get mistaken for Big Dummies when they say things like this:

  • "Between you and I, Aunt Fanny's gotten a lot more fatter since last picnic."

  • "I am quite adversed to money matters and business, in fact I'm quite financial indeed."
     
  • "I never seen a girl get ruined by a book."
     
  • "All my children are real eager to rake the yard every Fall, but somehow Sally always gets less leaves than Bob and Sue."


Chances are—you've said things just like this, every day, and had no idea people were laughing at you behind your back!
