Very easy.

Ana Sun 17-Nov-13 16:38:34

Yes - I'm a Grammar Guru, apparently! grin

Granny23 Sun 17-Nov-13 16:41:06

Easy, Peasy, Lemon Squeezy - 100% - which I would expect that everyone over 60 would get.

kittylester Sun 17-Nov-13 16:43:04

Simples! grin

annodomini Sun 17-Nov-13 16:51:33

If I hadn't got 100% there would have been something wrong with the questions! grin

Tegan Sun 17-Nov-13 17:03:41

I don't understand why the ones I got wrong were wrong confused.

Eloethan Sun 17-Nov-13 17:07:21

I got the who/whom wrong.

numberplease Sun 17-Nov-13 17:12:52

91%

A cinch.

However !!!

Although I got the who/whom one correct, if i were asking the same question, I'd use who no whom. Because one does. wink

thatbags Sun 17-Nov-13 17:16:30

who not whom even

Ariadne Sun 17-Nov-13 17:19:55

Very simple!

Scored 100%, Grammar Guru. I would also use who for whom in many cases.

whenim64 Sun 17-Nov-13 17:23:54

....and I am happy to split infinitives! grin

Nonu Sun 17-Nov-13 17:29:40

I am a grammar guru also !!
Still it wiles away a Sunday afternoon !!

Elegran Sun 17-Nov-13 17:45:02

Apparently I had 97% - but only if I was wrong to choose "Why don't you go and lie down?" as a correct answer.. Does anyone agree with me, or am I the only one out of step?

annodomini Sun 17-Nov-13 17:56:27

That is correct. Can't imagine you (or your) getting grammar wrong, Elegran.

Elegran Sun 17-Nov-13 18:01:23

So what did everyone else answer for that one? If you got 100% you must have put "lay down" unless there were other alternatives that I missed.

Marelli Sun 17-Nov-13 18:05:01

100% - but admit to having to think about who/whom!

Sook Sun 17-Nov-13 18:05:39

I'm a Grammar Guru too grin

Ana Sun 17-Nov-13 18:05:42

I ticked '...go and lie down' and 'I lay down the book'. What else could the choices be?

Ana Sun 17-Nov-13 18:06:33

It said those answers were correct, by the way!

Galen Sun 17-Nov-13 18:09:44

97%

NannaAnna Sun 17-Nov-13 18:12:30

100 % grin
I'd say it was a simple test ...

shysal Sun 17-Nov-13 18:13:48

Easy peasy. I am a guru too!
