| − | + | This is the Dwarf Fortress Wiki outpost of the Grammar Patrol. Grammar Patrol is an organization that helps every wiki on the internet with grammar, spelling, and typo fixing.<br /> | |
| − | + | <br /> | |
| − | + | Actually, its really just a nickname for edits I tend to make. When you see "grammar patrol was here" in an edit summary, then it means I have been there fixing a single grammar error, spelling mistake or typo. | |
| + | There is a difference between all of those: | ||
| + | * Grammar is the way you write sentences. A grammar error example is: "I '''go''' to the store and '''bought''' milk". This should either be "I '''went''' to the store and bought milk", OR "I go to the store and '''buy''' milk". | ||
| + | * Spelling is the way you write a word. A spelling error example is: "Why dont you go hel'''b''' her?" This should obviously be "Why dont you go hel'''p''' her?" | ||
| + | * A typo is an unintentional form of the above 2. A typo is really just the same as a grammar error or spelling error, but unintentional. | ||
| + | What I mean with intentional versus unintentional is, for example, a French person learning english and not following a grammar rule, not knowing that the rule he is breaking exists. This is my definition of an intentional mistake.<br /> | ||
| + | An unintentional mistake is, of course, just when I type too fast or just miss a key and write "hekko there" instead of "hello there" because these keys are near each other.<br /> | ||
| + | Another typo example(it just happened to me): "a tpyo is an unintentional spelling error".<br /><span style="color:#999;">Isnt that just ironic?</span><br /> | ||
