Just waiting for someone to say they “could care less” about using proper grammar and spelling.I will see if my mother is available to explain the difference.
The one I still struggle with to this day is the difference between effect and affect. I think one is a verb and one is a noun but I still need to think about it every time I use one of them.

And a compliment is an expression of praise or admiration (like the love emoji). To be complementary is to work well together and enhance each other, like butter and bread. Or hopefully, Jackson, Hawkins and Sanogo.

The English tutelage is much appreciated. Now if only I'd known about this message bored when I was sweating out 2nd grade.
