Supermarket responds after Reddit user’s warning about self-checkout overcharge — ‘Was annoyed that the total amount due on my supermarket purchase did not equate to the individual items I purchased.’::‘Was annoyed that the amount due on my Woolies purchase did not equate to the individual items I purchased.’
Okay Luddite.
I apologize for knowing how to spell.
So where do we draw the line on when new words can’t be created anymore? Shakespeare? Wassup? Crunk? Your username even has LOL in it, I don’t think we should be taking language lessons from someone who parades that around….
An online forum lacking in content and engagement isn’t the place to make a stand against minor mistakes that don’t detract from the conversation.
What I’m making a stand against is the position that there’s no such thing as bad grammar because it’s all just language evolution.
If it gets in the way of communicating, sure. Butobviouslythatwasn’ttheissue here.
