*facepalm*
I believe I have discovered how kids are failing to learn proper English.
Here's the sad beginning of an e-mail I just got from a kindergarten teacher:
Actually it has been a long time since anyone has come to my class that has not been to preschool. So kindergarten is usually is not there first experience.
The rest of the mail is just as bad, with improper use of parentheses and egregious abuse of ellipses.
Meh. I give up.
ETA: This reminds me that I meant to link this.
It's a damn shame the guy had to go all technophobic (and I sent him a rather pointed e-mail to that effect) because the rest of his point is solid, and worth paying attention to.
