Native speakers of English argue that the following sentence is correct :
There's some things you shouldn't forget to do.
What's your opinion ?

Question

Lots of native speakers of English say 'more stupid' and 'most stupid'. Is it right or wrong grammatically ?

Zuleigha Abderoef · Answer

I dont think there are degrees of being stupid - so I will not use such terminology.

Grammatically it is incorrect

As for the quoted sentence: there's some things.....

in English grammar the verb must agree with the subject in number

therefore: There ARE some things THAT you shouldn't forget to to do.

Also I am not a fan of contractions. The sentence will have more meaning (in context) if read as:

There are some things that you should not forget to do.

I disagree. the sentence would be more accurately phrased as "There ARE some things you shouldn't forget to do".

As far as "Informal Language" is concerned the sentence is correct.

Francis Panikulam · Answer

Saying that a grammatical mistake is "informal English" is a way of escaping from the truth. A mistake is a mistake !!!!
