When I first met Jazz, someone failed to introduce us. About midway through the evening I realized that she was Jazz. I spent the rest of the evening wondering how many grammatical miscues I made in my conversation.

The correct answer: C lay
Your answer: A laid
"After working on my car all evening, I finally lay down to sleep at around midnight."
Even your persnickety old English teacher is probably flummoxed by lay and lie now and then, particularly when the words are used in the past tense. To lay is to place something somewhere. To lie is to recline. But here’s the kicker: The past tense of lie is lay!
This is one of my biggest pet peeves...when people say "I could of done this...". It's could have!!!!!!I _______ made a perfect score, if there hadn't been so many trick questions.
a) could of
b) could've
c) coulda
