Speaking of spelling matters.... You don't make a plural of a noun by adding an apostrophe then an s.

Just for the sake of discussion…. 😁

can you use 's to indicate plural - Google Search (https://www.google.com/search?q=can+you+use+%27s+to+indicate+plural&rlz=1CDGOYI_enUS590US590&oq=can+you+use+%27s+to+indicate+plural&gs_lcrp=EgZjaHJvbWUyBggAEEUYOdIBCTE2NTY1ajBqN6gCFL ACAeIDBBgBIF8&hl=en-US&sourceid=chrome-mobile&ie=UTF-8)

I’m with you. I was aircraft mechanic for 40 years where zero errors wasn’t allowed, some stuff I just can’t let go when see it or read it. But, I will admit my error would have been potentially catastrophic? Compared to grammar? Unless you was doctor?

I'm confused. "Zero errors wasn't allowed". Are you saying that you were required to make errors??

I will never fly again! 😮😯😲😱

Guess that didn’t come out right, no safety or major errors was allowed. :read: Guess I need to proof read. Opps now I’m disqualified… :(

For me the worst situation is that many people start a NEW sentence without a capital beginning the 2nd sentence and no period or ? at the end of the 1st sentence. Lots of people do that.

What about the," Unless you WAS Doctor"? Maybe that was intended to be humorous? ........and for myself.....I never know whether to put the quotation marks before or after the quote ending period or question mark? Anyone can feel free to educate me on this. Anyone.

If the punctuation is to complete a sentence entirely within the set of quotes, the punctuation goes before the second quote. If the quotes are around a sentence fragment, the punctuation goes after the second quote.

Example:

He asked, "Why would you ask such an odd question?"

vs.

Why would you ask such an "odd question"?
