YouTube Description

as posted by the channel

We often use dictionaries and grammars authoritatively, don't we? We say that a word 'means' something or that a certain grammar point is 'correct' only when used a specific way. Never mind that the dictionaries and grammars aren't in complete agreement. There are other reasons why we should not be viewing these things authoritatively. To become a better thinker, an independent thinker, please consider an alternative explanation AND why dictionaries and grammars could pose a danger to your student's education.
