“I looked down and realized he had put his penis in me. He was not fingering me. He was penetrating me. Without asking first, without kissing me, without so much as looking me in the eyes — or even confirming if I was awake. When I startled and looked down, he immediately removed himself from me and yelled quickly, “I thought you knew!” This seemed very strange to me, for him to protest so adamantly with such a prepared, defensive line — even though I hadn’t yet said a word. I looked down and saw some blood on my bed. I was confused and hurt. He left soon after, and I rolled over and cried.”

| When you don't know anything about linguistics: | The plural of "memorandum" is "memoranda", why can't people get it right |
| When you know a little about linguistics: | The plural of "memorandum" should just be "memorandums" because that's how people naturally say it, "memoranda" is just prescriptivism |
| When you know a lot about linguistics: | Oh my god? So certain English words borrowed from Latin and Greek have competing plural forms, with one form using the English plural -s and the other using a borrowed Latin or Greek form? Do you realize how crazy that is - a language borrowing *inflectional morphology* from another language? And here the two competing plural forms have become markers of education, expertise, and social class, isn't that incredible? |
| When you have a degree in linguistics and dgaf anymore: | memorandibles |
