Ok....you were being a grammarian. I thought you had been holding your tongue about some big issue, and when I saw 'a lot' I thought maybe it was a joke and you were literally holding your tongue while saying "a lot" and that's when you crossed your eyes etc.
I get it now.
Well, maybe you can help me. Is it proper to say "I wish I was dead" or "I wish I WERE dead" from a grammarian point of view. I get was/were mixed up at times.
Also, is palette (like painters use) said pa-LETT or PAL-let ?
Many thanks.
Shar
