[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I'm an alum who doesn't go overboard pro-SFS and am not sending my kids there; that said, I thought the email was lovely and proactive.[/quote] Lovely? [/quote] The word "lovely" has become ubiquitous and meaningless. This message courtesy of your friendly, local grammar police. Now, back to our regularly-scheduled programming.[/quote] 1) Grammatically, the use of "lovely" was correct, even if it was not appropriately used here. 2) There is no need for a hyphen between "regularly" and "scheduled" because there is no ambiguity that the adverb modifies the adjective. I'm calling for a federal investigation of your grammar policing standards.[/quote]
