As many of you are having difficulty with the Williams article, I have included a few questions to prompt your blogging:
1) What is the "game" he talks about at the end of the article (p. 165)?
2) What is the main point Williams is making about errors?
3) Does he locate errors in the writer or the reader?
4) Why would Williams want to show evidence of grammarians violating their own rules?
I know it's a difficult read, but don't get bogged down in his analysis of minutiae - he does have a very important point to make here.
Good luck. We will discuss on Wednesday.
