Well she must be the Olympic Patience World Champion .......... if he does.Does @TooBad have a gf??
Most people's grammar is expected to be bad on a forum..... but his special talent for picking out correct grammar and declaring it wrong, is one of a kind.TooBald: "Honey what did I tell you about those words? Remove them, your sentence structure will be 40% more efficient. I can't be seen in public with a woman who has such horrible grammar."
"special" is rightMost people's grammar is expected to be bad on a forum..... but his special talent for picking out correct grammar and declaring it wrong, is one of a kind.

Never said I don't know why it was used.He has no idea why 'just' is used in those examples, that's what's baffling.
Never said I don't know why it was used, never said it was correct, nor incorrect. I identified it correctly, as a filler word.
Now your robottle is that people are wrong for not expecting you to write incorrectly?
What a moron
You're stuck on repeat
Your definition of a filler word seems to be 'meaningless words' added to a phrase or sentence.Never said I don't know why it was used, never said it was correct, nor incorrect. I identified it correctly, as a filler word.
You said the word "just" makes a difference. I asked, multiple times, how "looking" out the window is different than "just looking" out the window?
I didn't say anything about bastardized or improper. I simply identified that you're adding unnecessary words, in order, to add bulk to your statement.... As though larger words or longer sentences...make it more true.
Does @TooBad have a gf??
I've asked multiple times....what necessitates it's use?He says that the addition of the word 'just' is unnecessary... Which is incorrect
I've already told you, but here it is again.I've asked multiple times....
how does
"look out the window" differ from
"just" look out the window?
I've already told you, but here it is again.
In English 'just' is added to the start of a phrase for two meanings, either for emphasis , as in 'Just Do it' or its used to soften the expression.(aka add politeness)
Throughout Britain the phrase 'just look out of the window ' would be seen as a request (a polite form), where as 'look out of the window' would be seen as an instruction (curt form.)
so the two statements differ because one is a request and the other is an instruction.
this is how its defined in the Cambridge grammar dictionary ( ''could you just close the window'')
Students in British schools will be taught to add 'just' as a grammatically correct way to soften requests.
the US definition of filler words (on sites like Grammarly etc.), does not influence grammar taught on British shores.
many of these words have multiple meanings or uses which are not always enforced or fully understood outside of the UK & Ireland
I'm in complete agreement. People spell and use words inappropriately all day and everyday. The more ignorant people, that come together, wss does not make the incorrect action anymore correct....I can assure, you, people use "just" to indicate politeness and to soften tones here in the US too. This autistic monstrosity does not speak for the rest of us lol
how's your weight?I'm in complete agreement. People spell and use words inappropriately all day and everyday. The more ignorant people, that come together, wss does not make the incorrect action anymore correct....
Wrong is wrong, no matter how many people make a mistake.
The posture that wrong should be acceptable because there are many people doing something wrong is absurd...
So Everything I have 'just' posted is wrong?I'm in complete agreement. People spell and use words inappropriately all day and everyday. The more ignorant people, that come together, wss does not make the incorrect action anymore correct....
