(Part 2)
"A" and "an" are a bit trickier to get the hang of:
a - A (ha ha) speech word/sound used before a consonant, aka, a word that isn't spoken with a vowel sound: "I had a good time slapping that booty!", or, "What a fine ass that was, eh?" (Heh heh, remember was, too! It's in the past, lol!)
an - Exactly the same usage as "a", only before a word with a vowel sound: "An amazing stack on that one, eh?", or, "I have an obligation to kick your ass, pal!"
Hope that helped, at least a little! Back to the conversation...
I pretty much agree with everything you said about learning Japanese. Tricky stuff...
"There is" and "there are", too? That's all about the "is" and "are" rules I mentioned before, really, so no biggie.
Yes, there are many terrible English speakers in this country, and on the Internet; even great English speakers can type HORRIBLE English! That's why I try my best to speak online as I would in real life.
Raging grammar nazi's... Bah, fuck'em, lol.
Oh, and I posted a sweet little retaliation for ya! So... time for me to hit the sack and fight Mr. Sandman!
