I see there are no comments here yet.

I am an English professor, and have experience in magazine, book, and test editing. I often comment on grammar related subs on “that other social media site”, but I’m trying to help Lemmy grow by contributing here instead. But to do that, there needs need to be posts. : )

The way to get a community growing is to start posting. I’m going to start some seed topics, so please comment on them and add your own. Questions are good too.

    I think you all need to figure out the correct Lemmy terminology and make a guide for all the lost Lemmings!

    If this community adequately rips me a new one for poor English usage and Grammar in this comment and you guys figure out a Lemmy guide, we will pin it instance wide for at least 24 hours!

      OK. There was no need to capitalize the word ‘grammar’, I see no other problems with your post. Your offer sounds very cool. And it will take some time to make something worth showing around. The first post here was yesterday! But it looks like we’ve got some guidelines started, so I think we can make it work.

        I’m going to blame that on using swipe/gesture typing. I definitely do know it shouldn’t have been capitalized. Honestly though I’m surprised that’s the only thing you found considering English is my third language.

          Well. Respect. : ) I would have overlooked it, but you made criticizing you a condition for stickying our guidelines. Hehe.
