    Is it just me (being a grumpy old git) - or have the standards of written English being displayed on eBay (and elsewhere) fallen through the floor? Poor spelling, punctuation, capitalisation - all are at an all-time low. There's no excuse; it's just sheer laziness on the part of the writer - either now, or during their schooldays.

    Take a look here. I rest my case, your honour.

    Ok, I'll go and grump somewhere else . . . .

    Edit: I'd like to hear the 11 inch tweeter.

    You are not alone in your grumpingness about the use of English. Sometimes I have to look to a dictionary because, with all the poor spelling, etc., doubt creeps into my mind about how to spell words.

    Poor grammar, spelling and punctuation is also very apparent on forums and in the UK Hi-Fi mags.

    Proabably not the sellers fault as English is not really taught in schools any more. When my son was small he wrote stories that were riddled with spelling mistakes and without punctuation. We were told that they did not correct them as it might upset the children and affect their creative abilities

    My wife having trained as a teacher would correct the stories and punctuate them. She was not very popular as you can imagine. An alternative is that the seller is of the "street speak/text speak" persuasion and tried his hardest when confronted with having to try to write properly

    I'm pretty certain that an offence is being committed here!
    It is impossible for anything digital to sound analogue, because it isn't analogue!
