The a an mea culpa…

The English language, no matter how proficient you are, can confound at times and cause you to transgress unerringly.

Exactly like life itself.

Nouns are the Pashas’ of grammar and most other parts of speech dally around describing it. Articles are placed lower in the strata and may seem to be insignificant but are incredibly powerful in giving the noun a definite/ indefinite character.

Overthinking can cause one to blunder in using the right syntax and ruin a sentence. When you believe you’re a savant, the slippery slope leads to arrogance especially when you refuse to apologize or discern the damage.

Exactly like life itself.

Strive then to upgrade knowledge and keep abreast with the reconnaissance of the art of language, the dictionary adds new words every year yet grammar stays constant. Fundamentals remain like our character as we add new skills that morph us. The secret is to never lose touch with the bedrock of one’s true self.

Exactly like life itself.

Words are powerful, when they’ve caused lacerations remember to use all articles there are for reparation.
