Dialogue Grammar

Hey guys!

Please post a dialogue grammar question. Follow these directions:

  1. Choose a single line of dialogue to use for your question (for example, "Did you study last night," asked Mr. Holmstrom.
  2. Create two incorrect versions of this dialogue line (for example, "did you study last night" asked Mr. Holmstrom.
  3. Click the "Comments" link at the bottom of this blog.
  4. Type all three versions into the "comment" box. Please remember to put them in a random order so that all questions do not look the same!
  5. Post the comment, signing your name in the "Nickname" box. Use your first name and the first letter of your last name (for example, Lars H).
  6. Once I review it, I'll be sure that it appears on this blog.
