A word prompt to get your creativity flowing this weekend. How you use the prompt is up to you. Write a piece of flash fiction, a poem, a chapter for your novel…anything you like. Or take the challenge below – there are no prizes – it’s not a competition but rather a fun writing exercise. If you want to share what you come up with, please leave a link to it in Sammi’s Comment Section.
GRAMMATACIDE 101
Thank John Garland for inventing the English dictionary and Al Gore for the internet. Without them I would or I’d never’ve known about morphology or free (bad) and bound morphemes (badly). Hence, this lunacy might’ve been unreadable.

LOL! Yep! I love them word-trees … 😉 (well, not as an entity, but as a visual representation of the complexities we all produce without much thought … till some of us cannot …) 🙂

My only lament is that we were only allowed 37 words. 😉 The title is a word I use for those who butcher the language. 😀
Shalom,

Yeah. Language butchering is only allowed in children, immigrants, and those who don’t know better (for whom it does not rise to criminal levels of butchery …). Those who know better should … well … know better! 😉

Dear Dale,
I’m glad you thought so. A certain husband wasn’t sure how to comment on it. 😉 My mind goes in crazy directions sometimes.
Shalom and lotsa sporadic hugs,

A very readable piece with a wonderful title! Incorrect grammar drives me mad – I’m forever shouting at people on the TV and radio!

Dear Keith,
Interesting to know that you do the same thing I do on your side of the pond. Grammaticide is a word I coined for those who say “I seen it” “Was you…” and the list of irritation goes on and on. Thank you. 😀
Shalom,
Rochelle

I don’t think you’ll find the latter in the dictionary. 😉

Yep! Word Nerd for sure. I’m just a regular guy that passed English because of Literature. I couldn’t diagram if my life depended on it.

Dear Jan,
I still couldn’t tell you a predicate from a subject…although I’m pretty decent with descriptive adjectives and adverbs (which should be shot on sight according to Mark Twain. 😉 ) Thank you for reading and commenting even if the ‘story’ did make you scratch you head. ❤
