too and to can just be a typoo from someoens keyboard speed set up, much like your off and of pet hate. Not sure why people say got given _ thought it was given, been given, or would of is would've short for wood have - but it all depends on how much attention ya teachers made us give certain things and if it stuck. When I was a kid we couldn't read before kindy like the litle buggers can now, so wasn't until first grade when a teacher was explaining different sounds of the same letter of some words. I was busy with kid next to me, nort listening when suddenly teach asks me to say the word on the board - suddenly I felt like that kid in the ad with a spelling competition...can't remember his word - mine was PUT and it came out like putt even on try number 2 ! I think my teacher fixed my attention deficit order from that point on :D

Now I'm confused :|

Something that annoys me is when people don't use "done" properly. E.g "I done that thing"
Bad enough when they say it out loud but typing it is even worse. But I guess not everyone had as good of an education as the ones pointing out their mistakes :rolleyes:

I thought it was obvious :

1-1 was one racehorse, 2-2 was one too, 1-1 won one race and 2-2 won one too :)
