OK. I can\'t stand it anymore..!!
.. I gotta let my anal retention show a little about proper word usage.. (Not to be confused with intentional slang or typos.)
Here goes..
Your- ..is a possessive term.. " I like the paint job on your rifle.."
You're- .. abbreviation for "you are"
--------------------------------------------
Lose- (lüz) To misplace something or not to win a contest.. To get rid of..
Loose- (lüs) ..ill fitting. Not tight..
--------------------------------------------
to- usually denotes motion " I went to the mountains today.. Also used to define a range.. ".. My ES went from 13fps to 54..!! "
too- inclusive term.. Similar to "also". "I like NightForce, but I like Leupold too.." Can also suggest excessiveness.. "I ate too much at the Easter dinner.."
.. Feel free to flame away but this stuff just aggravates me to no end.. I know, I know.. Shaddup-n-go-shootin'.. Hehehe.. d:^) JiNC
