Methinks that along with the evolution of life, comes the evolution of grammar. A look into the past would not hurt. I came across the short story, David Swan by Nathaniel Hawthorne, which was written during the nineteenth century. I realized how much grammar has changed since then. Read it!

When I saw your title, I just had a flashback of my 16 years, 6 months, and 19 days here on Earth. I am so happy that I had a lot to remember and I am so gracious to God that He still has given me the opportunity to live. Of course, I will cherish the gift and make the best out of it. :)

ReplyDeleteI think, change is inevitable as time pass by.
ReplyDeleteFor me, English grammar has changed for the better.
ReplyDeleteChange is related to growth. English has grown this much because of change.

ReplyDeleteAs I scan the short story, I did not see many changes with the grammar except the "methinks" word.
