i'm dying to see what you all put.

I tried.

I tried.

I voted, but I hope the poll is private. If I'm wrong, I'll deny it.

That's my story, and I'm sticking to it.

Im probably wrong :banana:

*looks at results*

i TOTALLY knew that's how it would turn out. :lol:

Wouldn't it be "I was formally known as John?" I dunno. I was lucky. Plus I looked up whom on dictionary.com

I also figured that because you had lectured us on the word "whom" in the past, that it would automatically be the sentence with "whom" in it. ktxhdbi

Whats the answer? I wanna know pissed:

only if the people who voted for that thought that by formal i meant proper/mature or whatever that would count as being right. but if they thought it meant "previously", the correct word is formerly. for years i have been annoyed by seeing people say "i am formally known as blah blah" all the time when it should be formerly. i saw someone do it again today, and i just had to get it out of my system, that's why i made this thread.

but it's not the 'correct' one i have in mind. :grr:

Why is the one I picked wrong? :snob:
Because I'm right and you're wrong, I'm big and you're little and there's nothing you can do about it[/matilda]

Thats what I thought you meant :sarah: So I am right :D

That wouldn't make sense would it? Formally already means his name used to be John and it's already something else. So it would be I am formally known as John. Well according to my theory.:p

I thought it should be "I was formerly known as John." I picked "You're better than I" because it wouldnt be "You're better than me" because you would say, "I am better than you" not "Me am better than you."

I suppose I should correct my signature. :lol:

That's how I read the sentence. John would be his formal name.

heh

I picked the 3rd one.
