Mine is people who separate words when they write. I’m Norwegian, and we can string together words indefinetly to make a new word. The never ending word may not make any sense, but it is gramatically correct
Still, people write words the wrong way by separating them.
Examples:
-
“Ananas ringer” means “the pineapple is calling” when written the wrong way. The correct way is “ananasringer” and it means “pineapple rings” (from a tin).
-
“Prinsesse pult i vinkel” means “a princess fucked at an angle”. The correct way to write it is “prinsessepult i vinkel”, and it means “an angeled princess desk” (a desk for children, obviously)
-
“Koke bøker” means “to cook books”. The correct way is “kokebøker” and means “cookbooks”
I see these kinds of mistakes everywhere!
It’s becoming more common in English for people to say “whenever” when it should just be “when.” It’s like nails on a chalkboard when I hear it used wrong like that
Whenever did you last hear that?
I see what you did there.
It works in your latter sentence mind. Currently yours has the nuance of recalling a singular specific event, though not necessarily. Replacing “when” with “whenever” would infer it happens “every or at any time”.
Also works for the other commenter, coincidentally. :)
