i wonder if the winners find out by reading the press release just like the rest of us or if they have to keep it a secret for a long time
ReplyDeletedude, you aint making any sense .... look at ur sentence.
ReplyDelete"I wonder if the winners find out
1) by reading the press release [that's ok]
OR
2) if they have have to keep it a secret ....
? WHAT ON EARTH DOES THE "OR" construct do to "finding out". Maybe you should revisit english 101 ?
Offtopic: technical problem!
ReplyDeleteBill, Lance, there is a technical problem with your blog: this year posts became inaccessible (the last month that "archives" contain is December 2009).
Anonymous 2: I've no idea why I'm replying to a grammar troll, especially one who uses "aint" and "ur" in a post criticising someone else's English, but that comment makes perfect sense. It just needs a little punctuation. Below I've bracketed the two clauses joined by the "or".
ReplyDelete"I wonder if [the winners find out by reading the press release just like the rest of us], or if [they have to keep it a secret for a long time]."
(I'm not the first Anonymous, by the way)
maybe anon #2 was in for an April's fool joke. But re-reading his comment and your reply, I don't quite understand the OR construct myself.
ReplyDeleteWhy and how is "have to keep it a secret" related to "finding out ..."
Something like this would make sense:
Version 1:
"I wonder if [the winners find out by reading the press release just like the rest of us], or if [they through your blog post]."
Version 2:
"I wonder if [the winners find out by reading the press release just like the rest of us], or if [they are being told through their students]."
etc ...
It looks like anon 2 is Gasarch trying to get even with previous comments to his post.
ReplyDeleteFixed the archive problem that Edward pointed out. I update the archive page manually each year because I am too lazy to write the javascript for it.
