Talk:2005-05-23-Mary: My Story

You're most welcome, and thank you again for your encouragement! It appears I had noticed this grammar error as I had made the change, but for the record, I am going to insert this email in the discussion page for future reference. Your attention to details is much appreciated!

Thank you Rob.

I appreciate your work and countless hrs of time involved here.

I also appreciate your openness to have input and corrections. I'd suggest some grammer change in paragraph 5 of Mary's May 23, 2005 lesson.

as it is ...

night in his drunkenness I seen him beat my mother. I seen her cower.

It doesn't sound proper english... if you agree, I'd suggest something like:

Many a night in his drunkenness I saw him beat my mother, I saw her cower.

Or...

Many a night in his drunkenness I had seen him beat my mother, I had seen her cower.
