12 Year Old Publicly Schools Governor at Moral Monday Rally in North Carolina

[Hassan_Sabbah]

25. I have been here for a long time.

I just changed my screen name. And I'm sorry if I didn't recognize "schools" as a verb. "Publically schools," on first glance, looks like something meant to refer to public schools. I realize that nouns can become verbs in English, but that process can be overused. What is wrong with "educates"? Is there some notion that using real historically valid words is somehow elitist? And why do you folks insist on using newspaper-style abbreviated headlines in the first place? That is done in print newspapers to save limited space and, secondarily, to save paper and ink. On the internet, where pages automatically rerun themselves when words are added, it's more like an affectation than anything else, and, from what I can see, is simply meant to make it look like a website is newspaper-like.
