Affect vs Effect.  <—When do you use which?
Grey vs Gray.  <—Which one is the color?

Affect - To have an influence on or effect a change in: Use-Inflation affects the buying power of the dollar.

Effect - Something brought about by a cause or agent; a result.

As for grey, I believe both can be referenced as the color can’t they?

I have been getting into using the words “who” and “whom” in their appropriate respective places recently 😊

“TO WHOM do you give this present?” Or, “WHOM are you giving this present TO?”

“Whom” is used when there’s a directional sorta thing going on. Basically, if you can put the words “to,” “from,” “by,” “about,” etc. in the sentence, then you should use the word “whom.”

Whom is this book about? (ABOUT WHOM is this book?)

Whom did you get this from? (FROM WHOM did you get this?)

Whom is this movie by? (BY WHOM is this movie?)

I’ll give you people some exercise 😊 Correct the following sentences (if they need to be corrected):

1. Who are you going to see?
2. Who is from San Antonio, TX, USA?
3. Who wrote this book?
4. Who does this burger go to?
5. Who is going to San Antonio, TX, USA today?
6. Who did you go with?

Good luck, soldiers :::salutes:::  8)

Common errors in English

Very helpful.

:o

YE

THE

Those who study the history of English know that the word often misread as ?ye? in Middle English is good old ?the? spelled with an unfamiliar character called a thorn which looks vaguely like a ?Y? but which is pronounced ?TH.? So all those quaint shop names beginning ?Ye Olde? are based on a confusion: people never said ?ye? to mean ?the.? However, if you?d rather be cute than historically accurate, go ahead. Very few people will know any better.
