Grammarian Anthem: ‘Word Crimes’ by Weird Al

0

For everyone who deals in commas, semicolons and (parenthetical clauses) for a living, this video is for you.

It’s good to see that Weird Al Yankovic, still going strong at 98, has not lost any zip on his fastball.

In the above instance, it’s  is a contraction of  it is,  and not the possessive form, which, as we all know, is  its.

We’re investigating whether Strunk & White have received proper songwriting credits from Weird Al.

Happy Friday!
