[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I pull this one out every time this topic comes up: "graduated high school" just grates on me. Is it really so hard to add the "from"?[/quote] Believe it or not, but I saw 'graduated high school' in a WaPo article the other day! You'd think their editors should know better..[/quote]I've been hearing "graduated high school" so often lately that I've been wondering if it is correct after all - but it really bothers me too![/quote] The total pedant in me is coming out now: it's "I [b]was graduated from [/b]high school" or "I [b]was graduated from[/b] the Yale school of good grammar." [/quote] No kidding, I never heard that. So one does not graduate oneself?[/quote]
