Re: The Present Perfect in American English the question is when does something become correct? When it gets in the dictionary or when people use it enough? I can't imagine that "I could of eaten a horse" is ever going to be grammatically correct although many of us use it. "could eat a horse" is in the dictionary by the way. We certainly are going off topic here but it's an interesting question none the less. |
