Ask Lemmy
A Fediverse community for open-ended, thought provoking questions
Please don't post about US Politics.
Rules: (interactive)
1) Be nice and; have fun
Doxxing, trolling, sealioning, racism, and toxicity are not welcomed in AskLemmy. Remember what your mother said: if you can't say something nice, don't say anything at all. In addition, the site-wide Lemmy.world terms of service also apply here. Please familiarize yourself with them
2) All posts must end with a '?'
This is sort of like Jeopardy. Please phrase all post titles in the form of a proper question ending with ?
3) No spam
Please do not flood the community with nonsense. Actual suspected spammers will be banned on site. No astroturfing.
4) NSFW is okay, within reason
Just remember to tag posts with either a content warning or a [NSFW] tag. Overtly sexual posts are not allowed, please direct them to either [email protected] or [email protected].
NSFW comments should be restricted to posts tagged [NSFW].
5) This is not a support community.
It is not a place for 'how do I?', type questions.
If you have any questions regarding the site itself or would like to report a community, please direct them to Lemmy.world Support or email [email protected]. For other questions check our partnered communities list, or use the search function.
Reminder: The terms of service apply here too.

I hate when people say "rezourceful" instead of "resourceful." Also I don't care if it's spelled "pronunciation", I will spell it "pronounciation" and say it the same way. You don't "pronunce" words, you "pronounce" them.
I don't like that in UK English, they say people are "at hospital" and "he went to ground." No, he's at "a/the hospital" and he went to "the ground." Pace is not something you have, it's something you set. Collective singular nouns take a singular verb. Manchester City is, not Manchester City are.
at hospital
At work, at school, etc. are doing the same thing in US English. People are generally not saying "at my/the/a school/work".
I admitted that they're shallow and pedantic.
