Anna Miller, a fan of my English-usage blog at josecarillo.blogspot.com (http://josecarillo.blogspot.com), would like to share with Forum members an interesting article on her website, OnlineDegree.net, about what she calls 15 of “the most commonly misheard and misunderstood phrases” that English users must avoid at all cost. Among them are “"I could care less,” “chomping at the bit,” and “once and a while.” Check out Anna’s gallery of rogue language and her grammatical and semantic indictments against them by clicking this link to the “15 Most Butchered Phrases in the English Language.” (http://www.onlinedegree.net/15-most-butchered-phrases-in-the-english-language/)
