Defining grammar Follow Ups Post Followup November '98 Debate Forum FAQ Posted by Beverly Brown on November 04, 1998 at 16:43:11: Maybe it is the debate coach in me, but I had a problem with the debate because I felt the different issues were being debated. One of my concerns centers around the issue of whether we are talking about mechanics or usage. Another concern is whether we can apply the same rules to speaking and writing. In speaking the message can be affected by glaring usage problems, but mechanics are non-existent. The "no" side of the debate seemed to center on "oral" communication. The "yes" side seemed to center on correcting mechanics. I would like to see a debate on correcting mechanics vs. not correcting mechanics in written communication.
