I think we all have our moments when we read and see weird  grammar and punctuation, but here is a little test if you want to find out how good you are.

 

No cheating, 14 questions:

I scraped 11 correct with a bit of luck.

I'm not sure if that's grammar or a type of encryption 😕
Nothing sucks more than that moment during an argument when you realize you’re wrong. So Ive been told wink

You could probably set it as a punctuation quiz all by itself!

I saw that one and decided not to get involved.

 

I'm too old for all that.:smileyhappy:

 

Perhaps someone will help who can speak his language.

I find it's getting a bit harder now, I have to think a bit more, I find myself typing words and looking at them and thinking "Does that look right?"
