Douglas, repeat after me: "Every sentence must have at least one finite verb."And, as my old English teacher used to make us sing: "A finite verb is a verb which has a subject and a tense."In other news: Greek is hard.
Today I actually heard myself saying, "I'm not some kind of stickler for pedantry". Of course that's not remotely true. Does the finite verb song have any other words?
No, that one's pretty much all chorus.
