There is an "a" in "lazy"?
- rogual 3y agoWell, I'm stupid.
- jameshart 3y agoThe usual mistake people make in reciting this is to say the fox jumped over the lazy dog, causing them to omit an ‘s’ from the sentence. Making sure it’s ‘the’ lazy dog rather than ‘a’ lazy dog is actually important if you care about completing the lowercase alphabet, as without it there’s only an uppercase ‘T’.
- SamBam 3y agoIndeed. But it's worth having "a lazy" anyway to avoid the repetetive "the."
