  • Trust our wonderful BBC to think that the plural of loofah should have an apostrophe. Stephen Fry would be outraged.

  • Slightly embarrassing that the BBC doesn't know how to use an apostrophe.

  • @martinAKAthebeast Stephen Fry would arguably have better things to concern himself with.

  • @martinAKAthebeast Actually Steven Fry despises the "misplaced apostrophe" society. I have seen him go on many rants about it... However, it is pretty appalling that the BBC would make such an error.

  • @MrEthanhC I was with you after the first sentence. I had assumed that as someone known for loving language Stephen Fry would want people to use it correctly, I may be wrong. Of course language changes and Shakespeare was wonderful etc but at any given moment there is correct and incorrect grammar and this is wrong. Plus I really love the fact that you end with a very guiding question trying to hint at me being unintelligent about a subject that I made absolutely no allusion to.

  • @acr08807 LOL I see what you did there

  • @acr08807 they have multiple

  • Loofahs are plants. They can't come from anywhere because they have no genitals.

  • @martinAKAthebeast No he wouldn't. In fact, he rather dislikes people that make a big deal of grammatical errors. Language is an ever changing thing. And that includes grammar.

    Would you attack William Shakespeare for his inventiveness of language? You don't really believe that every Englishman in the Shakespearean era spoke with thee and thous?

  • @NuWave12 Sorry, I've not been well.

  • where do loofahs come from: his desk.

  • @chao2609 When I said makes it a plural, I mean Liches rather than Lich xD
