        lol this reminds me of that time on chemistry class, one of the guys who didn’t want to be there asked the teacher “what am I going to do with chemistry in my life? Like if I become a car sales man, what use is chemistry!?” and the teacher just quietly muttered the answer… “well I wouldn’t buy a car from a guy who doesn’t know the difference between hydrogen and petrol…” and then continued the lesson.

        The guy was pretty quiet for the rest of the day lol.

        Word splitting and joining is a source of confusion these days. It’s like a “stair case” is part of a contingency plan that may also have a “ladder case”.

        But the kids with the “atleast”, “aswell”, “incase”, etc; that’s even more confusing.
