Hey...
Here we call it "literary license", also used to kill English grammar writting songs, books & getting a hefty bank account in the process.
So get in line, pal: English is my third "second" language, after French & Italian, not counting the bloody bollocks Latin & Esperanto. Lol...
It was a joke, did it not come across that way?
Certainly would have every English teacher, tearing hair..
Even a few French and Italian ones too I guess!
Oh well some you can please, some not...
Snark..
