Right, now that we're here, I have an issue that piqued my curiousity.
Absence of UK syllabus books.
On the absence of UK syllabus books in the library...The first thought was "What the... We're part of the British Commonwealth. We should have at least one book WITH a UK syllabus and spelling."
Spelling is important. Seriously, half of the time I'm tempted to asked the teacher silly question like "Is it 'foetus' or 'fetus'?" and stuff like that. Yes, it is obvious I'm an Anglophile and fussy about language. I should just shut up but this is what freedom of speech is all about.
Ok, I get it. They came and conquered us and all that song but come on! Do you even know how many people kept going between American and British English MID SENTENCE?
Plus, everyone kept lecturing us on using what English and how. Do you think we enjoyed going back and forth?
Anyway, there was a schoolmate of mine who once said "In the end, it's all about application."
Who decides anyway?
For the heck of it, I'll settle for grammar. If the grammar is correct, fine.
