npub16uk4yyw47haxwl0klhh7lcx3qatkyqmpc6gc4hwru3qedaeuueeqqkpv7k (npub16uk…pv7k) Because grammar education in schools is almost uniformly *awful*.
The names of word classes (common nouns, Proper Nouns, pronouns, adjectives, adverbs and prepositions), the fact that connectives were sometimes called "conjunctions" (actually I learned a more subtle distinction, which I have since forgotten) and how to use a semicolon: this is the extent of the grammar I learned from my schooling. All my other *correct* grammar knowledge came from reading.
My school was very good.
