- What's the difference between "setup" and "set up"? When should "anyway" or "any way" be used? Why do old candlesticks have buttons in their bases?
Lessons about writing paired with brief lectures about antiques is sure to be a winning combination, eh?

I'm sad I found this video now and not in the future. I wanna watch the whole series! Tell me how to use a semi-colon!
There's going to be an episode devoted entirely to punctuation, so keep an eye out!
Every day that starts with a new video from my favorite pigeon is great, but sadly that's not an everyday occurrence!
Ramses, when are you going to make an account on a lemmy instance and join us in the federated non-Reddit world?
This video feels like an episode of Tom Scott's "Language Files" or "David Mitchell's Soapbox" (the differing quotes around those feel strange) and I'm thirsty for more!
Unfun fact: The last episode of DM's soapbox was 12 years ago. The finite years of your existence are cast ever further away by the unrelenting infinity of the future.
More Wordsmithing 101 episodes please! This is good stuff.
Great video any way you cut it. Anyway, that's all I wanted to say. :)
Alot, atleast, noone and everyday annoy me all the time.
Hello egyptian-bird-redditor, keep up the portmanteauing
Into vs in to was one that I got incorrect for a while.
I like to use an example that features a building: “I ran in to the store” describes a very different experience than “I ran into the store”.
