...make a fool of ourselves if we boast of how well something is done when it wasn't well done from the very beginning. The new campaign for bilingual schools contains, as you may have heard, a grammatical mistake. Yes, we know that grammar is not the ONLY important thing in language learning and usage, but as a teacher I have to insist on the need to communicate and do it correctly at the same time. Do we want to pursue this objective?
Yes, we do! or
Yes, we want to!
(Btw, could people stop repeating Obama's motto for a while? Such lack of originality is getting on my nerves...)
