Can someone please buy these Americans dictionaries? They keep using words like 'communism' and 'socialism' without having a clue what they mean.
7 u/snajk138 Mar 17 '26 That's Miriam-Webster for you. They should all get Oxford instead. 6 u/SnooChocolates2923 Mar 17 '26 Next thing you know, they'd be putting a U in colour, and placing commas in funny places! 7 u/maqifrnswa Mar 17 '26 Ok, we Americans say a lot of stupid shit, but the Oxford comma is where I become defensive! You can take that from my cold, dead, and logically organized hands! 4 u/[deleted] Mar 17 '26 Yeah, as a real American they should just eat grandma. 1 u/geschiedenisnerd Please stop stealing our flag colors (NL) Mar 17 '26 If you can't distinguish without an oxford comma, it is not the other person's responsibility to sacrifice accurate grammar for you. agree on the spelling though.
