Drawl is a word, as in "He does not annunciate; he drawls."
But yeah, I hate it when people use it to mean "drew."

Another thing that bugs me is when people say "minus" instead of "negative." I know that "minus" is also acceptable to use in that way, but in my head "minus" is only used to describe a mathematical expression, as in "two minus four," but not "the answer is minus five."
by Anonymous13 years ago
But it IS minus five. Minus is but the symbol, so they are saying symbol and number and aren't using "minus" as the adjective.

I know, and I even acknowledged that minus five is technically correct. It's just a personal pet peeve that bothers me on a purely aesthetic level.

Oh, I have nothing against YOU, sir. You're actually pretty nice, compared the the guy with whom I really was arguing.

I say that sometimes. Now I feel stupid. :/
by Anonymous13 years ago
Well, the people only say that because we say "five times two." As long as you know how to multiply, it really isn't that bad.
by Anonymous13 years ago
it's really not a big deal, As long as the people know what you're talking about, it's not bad

I don't really care. I understand what it means each way.
