There was a confusion of major proportions as to whether Don Quijote is a poem, an essay, a short story, or something else. There were factual statements that were wrong. There was a passage that simply slaughtered me: "This novel is interesting because it's a novel. And that is interesting."<br /><br />Pages and pages of this.Clarissahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11027134365260069910noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3164556861454970487.post-42117501348704370512011-03-03T15:22:48.280-05:002011-03-03T15:22:48.280-05:00If this person is a native Spanish speaker, what o...If this person is a native Spanish speaker, what on earth can they be getting so wrong?

By my reckoning, with their education level, value to the community, and their work load, their pay load should probably be on par with that of a doctor in a perfect world. <br />I used to have a serious phobia of oceans of red ink on my papers, but now I see it as a chance to make a resolution to do better next time.Leah Janehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16798094383285526940noreply@blogger.com
