    I’m telling you it isn’t supposed to be grammatically correct. Baguette’s when pronounced sounds closer to begets than baguette. It’s also funnier (at least to most people) since it’s wrong in a comedic way.

    Also, why do you think the 's is pluralizing? There’s no indication whatsoever that baguette’s is supposed to be plural.

        If you’re following grammar rules, which I already said it isn’t. Also, it would have an apostrophe if it was possessive, so by itself baguette’s isn’t necessarily wrong (for example, the baguette’s wrapper was clear). I’m confused about what you’re arguing since it seems to make no sense.

            Oh no a typo from me typing on my phone. Guess my entire argument is invalid. That must be why you didn’t address any of my points.

                The difference between GrammEr and grammAr is a typo. Also, I’m not the one who changed the topic, you did by only responding by commenting about my typo.

                  “Typo” is short for “typographical error.” The A and E aren’t close enough to excuse what’s obviously a common spelling error. You don’t have to lie on the Internet.

                  My reply was not solely about your spelling error. Your reading comprehension sucks.

                    typographical error definition

                    You say things, but I’m not sure if you know what they mean. It was in fact a misspelling since I do know the correct spelling. Additionally, typos can occur in more than just one way, so it is still a typo. There is nothing saying a typo HAS to be because the keys are next to each other.

                    Also how is this comment not only about grammar:

                    *grammar

                    It wouldn’t make any sense for it to be possessive.

                    I am not lying on the internet, nor do I feel the need to. I care about the opinions of people I know and care about, not one from a random stranger who ignores facts.
