Sparring grammatical error

Darklink · 08-09-2013

So basically, this is what message is shown when you click on your spar

"The spar rating says how good you have sparred in the last few days."

Now correct me if I'm wrong, but I believe it should say "The spar rating says how well you have sparred in the last few days"

Just thought I'd share this lol

"i am good" could be a reply to reflect the quality of the activity that you are doing. For instance, after beating the mighty iChronic in spar one could say: "i am good..." implying that they are good.

"Good" is an adjective. Adjectives modify nouns."Well" is an adverb. Adverbs modify adjectives, a verb or an adverb.

"The spar rating says how good you have sparred in the last few days."

"Rating" is the noun. "Good" is describing the noun, "rating".

edit:

btw ur wrong. the sentence is fine.

No, he's right. It should be well, not good. Without getting too into it, in this case the good/well is modifying the verb "sparred" in the sentence.

That has to be the best update this server has ever had. Screw quests, screw hats, screw the railroad, GRAMMAR IS PRIORITY. Graal Police should become Grammar Police. They'll still be called 'GPs', but at least now they'll serve a higher purpose... To serve, and correct!
