Hear, hear!

I see the incorrect use of "Hear, hear!" used a lot here. Are they merely done as typos, or cos the correct derivation wasn't known?

Excellent thread Tatelou! The problem is that incorrect use will eventually overwhelm correct use and the formerly incorrect use will become, over time, correct use.

My kids and their friends were getting a lift in my car and discussing some music. Apparently "bare sick" (which I heard as "bear sick") means "jolly good".

Thank you. And, yes, very true, unfortunately.

I heard "phat" being used, so it's okay for 14 year olds. I dunno, maybe it's passe for 12 year-olds to say it.

I'm admiring your e acute. It's alt-something on the numeric keypad, isn't it?

I don't know. But I don't think your supposed to use 'phat' and 'passe' in the same sentance.

Are you gonna pass a note to teacher about it? She might give you a house point.
 
Alt and accents


alt 128 = Ç
alt 129 = ü
alt 130 = é
alt 131 = â
alt 132 = ä
alt 133 = à
alt 134 = å
alt 135 = ç
alt 136 = ê
alt 137 = ë
alt 138 = è


and so on...

Edited for PS: Use the Num Lock key and number keypad, NOT the numbers on the keys below the F Keys.
