Respect For Atta

Re: Respect For Atta

You don't have to take classes, you can look it up. Of course, in classes, they teach you not to because it's a bad habbit.

Not to be nitpicky but habit only has one 'b'.

Also, you may start a sentence using 'and' but only for emphasis. Authors and writers use it intentionally, however sparingly. Journalists use it frequently. That does not make it correct. I would suggest highly against turning in a term paper in which 'and' was used to begin any sentence.

And for all you naysayers' further enrichment:

STARTING A SENTENCE WITH A CONJUNCTION

In the past, schools were rigid in their ruling that sentences could not start with conjunctions, such as "And" or "But". However, nowadays, this practice is considered acceptable.
I was certain he did it for the money. But, having read his diary, I
have a new theory.

The two most common conjunctions used in this way are "And" (meaning "In addition") and "But" (meaning "However"). It is usual to follow each with a comma.

Whilst it is acceptable to use "And" or "But" to start a sentence, this practice should be limited and only used for effect and impact. If you find yourself using them too often, you should consider changing the style of your writing.

That concludes today's grammar lesson.
Now let's see some recipies!

Do you have any better suggestions for me to be doing at work? Besides, that is, doing what I actually get paid to do, which is essentially nothing anyway. LOL.

Oh, I'm glad you looked it up. I just don't understand why the "naysayers" couldn't.

Yeah, that was probably a typo or I just wasn't paying attention, either way my bad.

Re: Respect For Atta

I don't know where you've been taking English classes but starting a sentence with "and" was never correct.
