    It says that I am not a Grammar Nazi (probably because I have no children and no significant others, so I said no to those questions).

    I am happy to be a Grammar Nazi… if there aren’t enough of us, we will be forced to see the collapse of the English language world… something like that. Newspapers, advertisements, cereal boxes: grammar mistakes everywhere! One that I hate is the use of “went” when “have gone” is meant.

    I am a grammar Nazi! Though, I have learned to hold my tongue in most situations. People get mad at me and continue to talk the same way, so I have given up on changing the grammar of my world. From time to time I slip up and have to react to the squeak of chalk on a chalkboard, hoping to leave at least an impression and increase awareness. Perhaps they will at least remember when putting it in writing. My homeschooling days are coming to a close and it just won’t matter as much anyway.

    I think I could be a Grammar Nazi – if I had better attention skills – totally missed the “your” in the quiz title/pic. I couldn’t get my eyes off of orientated though – I don’t think I’ve heard or read anyone use that. But irregardless and supposably yes – I honestly didn’t know irregardless wasn’t a word, but now that I am typing supposably know that it’s supposed to be supposedly.

    Ah is NOT a grammar snob! Ah use good English… Ok, maybe not much. But I will blame the Navy for my lack of etiquette…

    Hello. I’m Sandy and I’m a grammar nazi. The grammar gaffe that makes me gnash my teeth most furiously? Misusing reflexive pronouns. Grrrrrrrrrr. That one makes myself crazy.

    I’m sad to confess that according to this quiz, I’m not a grammar Nazi.

      I am not at all sad. I’d rather not have Grammar Nazis working for WriteAtHome. You can be good at grammar without being obnoxious.

      Excellent, Will. No one likes Grammar Nazis. Except maybe other Grammar Nazis.

    I’m a Grammar Nazi. I don’t have kids though, so I subsituted siblings in instead. I hope that counts.

    I love your quizzes! 😀

    I’m not a grammar Nazi — I tend to let verbal usage slide. If we’re talking about mistakes on paper, though, I do make a point of being correct (unless I’m breaking the rules on purpose, because that happens, too), and I won’t flinch from correcting others. 😉
