Similar: You are a MASTER of the English language! While your English is not exactly perfect, you are still more grammatically correct than just about every American. Still, there is always room for improvement... That's good having in mind I was born in a goddamn south-east europe country :-) Posted by: Saint Peter at April 27, 2004 01:02 AMWatch out with this one! If you click on the 'Show All Levels' link, it loads a bunch of nasty ad/spy-ware through a hidden CAB installation. Some anti-virus packages catch it, but if yours doesn't, you're in for some fun to remove it. Check out: For more information... Posted by: Joe Duffy at April 27, 2004 07:19 AMYou are a GRAMMAR GOD! Posted by: bill at April 27, 2004 11:30 AMNot to detract from your deific desgination, but it's worth reading Bill Poser's great post about this quiz on Language Log: He makes a lot of really good points about how goofy this quiz is, not the least of which is that with its hundreds of millions of speakers, English hardly needs people to preserve it. (And yes, I was dubbed a Grammar God as well; apparently I successfully learned the rules about "shall" and "will" that, to this day, I have yet to hear anyone use, including myself.) There's something screwy with this quiz. I got "Grammar God", then went back and changed 8 out of the 20 answers, resubmitted, and still got "Grammar God".
