Wednesday Words & Woes: One Real (But Not Accepted) and Two Not Even Real
Susan 🐝 Rooks, The Grammar Goddess · Questions arise constantly about words -- which to use, which to never use, and why. · In my Brush Up on Your American Grammar workshops, I refer to some words as not accepted or not standard, meaning they are in dictionaries but are not considered proper English (at least not y ...
Tuesday Tricksters, Marten -- More
Susan 🐝 Rooks, The Grammar Goddess · Who hasn't written the wrong word, thinking one (won) that sounded like it was the right (rite) one?

Tuesday Tricksters, Mantel-Martial
Susan 🐝 Rooks, The Grammar Goddess · And the words just keep coming, don't they? I doubt we'll ever run out of them, even if their power and/or trendiness change over time. · What doesn't change is writers everywhere using one (won) word when (wen) they might (mite) have (halve) meant another. The words that are the ...
A Frolicking Friday Funday!
Susan 🐝 Rooks, The Grammar Goddess · I so need this Friday Funday! How about you? Was your week tougher than you'd hoped for?

Tuesday Tricksters, Main -- Manor
Susan 🐝 Rooks, The Grammar Goddess · It's Tuesday, so it's time for more tricksters, words known as homophones that sound the same (or nearly so), but have different spellings and meanings. They're miserable to work with because if our brains and eyes are not connected to our fingers, our ears may win the battle of ...
American Grammar Checkup: More on Hyphens
Susan 🐝 Rooks, The Grammar Goddess · It's amazing that anyone can come up with post after post on one of the smaller punctuation marks, isn't it?

Tuesday Tricksters, Loot -- Male
Susan 🐝 Rooks, The Grammar Goddess · So it's Tuesday again, and time for another edition of Tuesday Tricksters, words (homophones) that sound like at least one other word (or nearly so), but have different spellings and meanings. They can crop up in any writer's articles, so I just hope everyone continues to remembe ...
American Grammar Checkup: Pronouns -- Yes, Again
Susan 🐝 Rooks, The Grammar Goddess · Everyone who has seen my posts over the last two years knows I'm a nut about using language correctly, especially using pronouns correctly! · There is just so much misinformation being bandied about that I thought it was time to again remind my connections about a couple of impor ...
FIRST Friday Funday of 2017!
Susan 🐝 Rooks, The Grammar Goddess · It's FRIDAY! It's another FUNDAY! · And yes, sometimes this IS how it feels to wake up · in the morning. · Especially now that it's winter. · And it's cold outside. It's actually snowing. · And it's cold inside. No, it's not snowing inside. · From a post by Ken Boddie (https:/ ...
Tuesday Tricksters, Loath -- Luce
Susan 🐝 Rooks, The Grammar Goddess · Well, we all made it through 2016, enjoyed our holidays, and are mostly back at work for the first time in 2017. · So with that in mind, I am continuing to post Tuesday Tricksters, mainly to remind my readers of the danger of blindly trusting spellcheck. Spellcheck's only job is ...
Wednesday Words: Who and Whom
Susan 🐝 Rooks, The Grammar Goddess · From what I've seen over the 20+ years I've been helping business professionals (re)learn the finer points of American grammar, very few folks know how to use who and whom. · Seriously. You probably do not. So I thought I'd see if a post on just these two words might help. · Dire ...
Thursday Thought: The Gift of "Enough"
Susan 🐝 Rooks, The Grammar Goddess · I saw this picture on Loribeth Pierson's final post of her excellent series called 12 Days of LinkedIn Tips -- and I was struck by how it so closely mirrors how I grew up and how I live now. · I am among the luckiest of people, having been born to a mother who might have gotten t ...
Wednesday Words: Yiddish for Everyone!

I grew up hearing a lot of th ...
Tuesday Tricksters -- Links -- Lone
Susan 🐝 Rooks, The Grammar Goddess · It's near the end of 2016, and I started sharing homophones (those nasty words that sound alike -- or nearly so) back in April 2015. I decided then to publish them in alphabetical order; otherwise, I'd go nuts trying to remember which ones I had worked on. I offer no more than fi ...
A Friday Fa la la la Funday for Fido!
Susan 🐝 Rooks, The Grammar Goddess · Because I have so many funny pictures of all kinds for both Christmas and Hannukah, I'll be publishing three separate funday posts: today, next Wednesday (Wednesday Words), and next Friday.

Wednesday Words: Contronyms
Susan 🐝 Rooks, The Grammar Goddess · Thanks to Deb Helfrich for suggesting this post!

Tuesday Trickesters: Licker -- Limn
Susan 🐝 Rooks, The Grammar Goddess · It's Tuesday again! Time for more difficult words -- homophones -- that we all need to pay attention to!
