That makes me feel better about my fish, I thought it was among the worst, but good to know it atleast qualified.

Also make sure you’re filling up the canvas — don’t draw something too small.

Did it face the right way?

Got a potted flower through. It's swimming nicely

My hot dog with a smiley face got a 64%, I'm sorry.

Well what's the difference between a lamprey and an hot dog?

Mr Worf: "an hot ...". Strictly correct but try saying it out loud - its quite painful! I too was taught to use "a" as the indefinite pronoun when the noun had h as the initial capital letter. "An" would normally be the correct form if the noun's initial letter is a vowel (a vowel, not an vowel).

Any en_GB speaker will probably do one of two things here:

  "an 'ot" - where the h is dropped and "an" and "'ot" sound like a bit like "annot"
  "a hot" - here the a becomes ay (rhymes with hay)

I'm very impressed that the old school rules still turn up. I do own a copy of "Usage and abusage" somewhere but it is and should be largely consigned to history.

When you trot out a phrase like:

"Well what's the difference between a lamprey and an hot dog?"

I can't help but notice a lack of a comma post "well"!

A lamprey is a fish and a hot dog is a sausage. The first is a living organism and the other is a processed food.

Cheers mate

“An h*” is regional. Had a professor who said “an historic…” all the time, never stopped noticing it, though.

I speak 5 languages and english isn't on top of the list. The time you spent writing that novel could have been spent learning another language instead perhaps?

I was merely noting that you used a grammatical rule I have not seen in quite a long time.

sigh

5 -> five, english -> English (we are not Germans who insist on all nouns be capitalised but why not try it for a proper noun), novel -> diatribe. Possible missing ellipsis.

I speak roughly seven languages really badly and can fail to apologise properly in several others.

It's mostly down to the casing.
