English is a spoken language and isn’t bound by a grammar book. The rules are made afterward. As long as the usafe is common enough to be recognized, the grammar “rule” is irrelevant. Our modern, fast-paced, txt-and-chat-based society has completely pwned the grammar rule book. I believe in using proper grammar, but I can’t fault those who don’t. Dangling participles, split infinitives and ending sentences with a preposition are common usage and should be recognized as proper usage. The purpose of a language is to communicate. If today’s kids rofl cuz their bff sent a lol in a txt, good for them. That’s how people communicate today.
