I am not usually a grammar nazi. lord knows I don't always speak correctly. but the confusion between suppose and supposed and use and used drives me crazy. this is a common confusion even people i know who are not dummies make. please read and let's all try harder in 2011 to use these words appropriately.
1. suppose v. supposed
I suppose i will do that.
i am supposed to do that.
you are supposed to do that.
it is NOT i am suppose to do something.
2. use v. used
i am used to that.
you are used to that.
i will use that.
it is NOT i am use to that.
oh, and while i'm at it. please do not caption your pictures "so and so and i at the mall" or anything like that. if you take so and so out of it, you would caption the picture "me at the mall" not "i at the mall."
Oh how my love for you grows by leaps and bounds when being a little Eloise Grathwohl. :-)
