It's the declension of an irregular verb.

A declension of a regular verb would be

I walk
You walk
He walks
They walk
We walk.

It's a paraphrase...

the Official Secrets Act" - Bernard, "Yes Prime Minister"

May i suggest the LJ community Grammer_whores.

Grammer usually confuses me..and SAlly kills me randomly for my poor sentence structure.

However, the examples seem to indicate a secondary issue..

Wanna chat about it?

*raspberries*

ped·ant·ry ( P ) Pronunciation Key (pdn-tr)
n. pl. ped·ant·ries
Pedantic attention to detail or rules.
An instance of pedantic behavior.
The habit of mind or manner characteristic of a pedant.


Ped"ant*ism\, n. The office, disposition, or act of a pedant; pedantry. [Obs.]

So I might be a bit out of date - but it's still valid.

sadly, the last one sounds all too familiar, grammar-related humour etc aside, & is why i'm considering moving characters/quitting playing several games.
