I did it, you can as well. Fair notice, absolutely no prizes will be awarded for correct answers.

Given what I’ve seen on the internet, a fair percentage will fail.

I took the C A B but then again I was also taught well. I will admit that I have to stop and think about affect and effect but the triple ‘2’s has never bothered me. I am afraid that that is not the case with modern education, sigh!

I was once challenged to write correctly the following spoken sentence;

“There are three ‘tus’ in English”

I gave it some thought and wrote;

” There are two ‘tos’ in English. There’s another one too.”

I got full credit.

I passed too. Now we need one to explain the difference between the two words “loose” and “lose.” My personal pet peeve.

affect and effect

You, too? Thinking about it doesn't even help me! I just hope when I;m wrong others don't know the difference. LOL!

I was a little confused by this test. I didn’t really know what two do. There were to many question too answer for me.
