Huh. Wonder why...


I don't know. Do you know anyone who might care about that?

Someone is looking for a Soul Gem?


I think so.

Oh. Not really. Just that it helps with the soul...I think. He called it the Soul Gem. From the name I would assume it allows control over one's souls.


Didn't someone say they were looking for something called a Soul Gem?

Now that is something very untrue. No school of grammar sees all right as outdated, and all still prefer all right. One person's opinion is not that of the people who make the language. But since it's not heavily controversial, unlike the Oxford comma debate, unless one makes a big deal about it, it's each to his own. And I'm not going to make a big deal out of it (unless you say it's outdated).


I didn't. And I didn't say I agreed (I agree with the fact that "alright" is much neater and pleasing to the eye), but I will continue to use that form. In addition, I don't see where I will come across the need to use either form in formal writing.

Existence is very large. Even narrowing down to the places of help, it's still an unfathomable amount. There are many of us, though, and some Lords of Chaos have seen fit to help us.


As a collective, you must know something.

Nearly all schools of grammar see alright as incorrect, although Oxford says it's okay to use it informally. it says that since many people see alright as totally incorrect, in formal writing you should probably use all right instead.


My AP/IB/GT English teacher said that "All right" was outdated, even in formal speech, and to use "alright" instead.
