Being a 'passive' participant of this NG for several dozens of



month

already,it is quite heartening to know that quite a number of us

are actually 'dormant' English teachers. :-)



Dormant? Speak for yourself.

Are you saying..."for yourself" or "of yourself"?




"For" The implication is that you do not speak on my behalf.

teacher here telling us how to write in proper English (once every

See what I mean? It should read "... a few English teachers..."
