What I learnt today....
-
So true Gai, but I meant the learned friend reference.
I always find it interesting that people who speak English as a second language often have a better understanding of the actual construction than the native speakers. -
Well, I had to studyEnglish and one of the things you do is to learn grammar, too. Native speakers often just "pick it up". Besides, I also learnt some Latin and although English is supposed to be a Germanic language, it is amazing how much it is similar to Latin (and I am not talking about the vocabulary which is obvious)

Most walls are white where I live...

Tradition ? It's a uniform that makes you look like a painter instead of a slob. It looks less trashy to have light colored paint on white overalls than splotches on a blue t-shirt?

The messiest surfaces to paint are ceilings. Nuff said....unless it's to make them more visible when they fall off their ladder and lay sprawled in the middle of your front lawn.
