"Well, because I have a number of guides to grammar and style and things like that on the World Wide Web, I get messages from strangers all the time, asking me various grammatical and stylistic questions. But one came up in many variations many times, and it always took the form 'When I was in school, I was taught such-and-such and now I hear so-and-so. Have the rules changed?'
"And I realized I don't even know how to begin answering that, because the rules of the language aren't some official set of guidelines that are voted on by a committee or something like that. It's more an organic set of habits and superstitions and prejudices that all come together into the collective practices of the group." |
