"And when thou prayest, thou shalt not be as the hypocrites are: for they love to pray standing in the synagogues and in the corners of the streets, that they may be seen of men."

I use "nauseated" correctly but never correct others, thanks to maternal conditioning. I use "hopefully" incorrectly but hear my mother chiding me in my head every. single. time.
