My main cartoon is called Rebusquest. About a magic land where rebus puzzles are a way of life. That way, kids can enjoy a story while learning puzzle solving skills.

]]> Comment on Games and movies for study? Why not? by Richard Edwards http://www.readableblog.com/2007/09/13/games-and-movies-for-study-why-not/comment-page-1/#comment-145587 Richard Edwards Sat, 01 Dec 2012 21:30:28 +0000 http://www.readableblog.com/2007/09/13/games-and-movies-for-study-why-not/#comment-145587 Hi Clarissa – I thought you might be interested in a game I created too. It’s a fun (I hope) grammar test based on the grammar gambling classroom game. It’s aimed at learners practising on their own.

I was taking a sabbatical from my career as a website producer and was really surprised at how my new (Burmese) students were so competitive. And they loved grammar gambling in the classroom, hence my making an online version!

Hope you think it’s interesting :)

- Richard

]]> Comment on Pitfalls: “Married TO,” Not “Married WITH” by Eli http://www.readableblog.com/2008/01/21/pitfalls-married-to-not-married-with/comment-page-1/#comment-67700 Eli Wed, 10 Aug 2011 15:05:09 +0000 http://www.readableblog.com/2008/01/21/pitfalls-married-to-not-married-with/#comment-67700 Thank you so much! Now I believe that the child in question is too old for such a mistake. I really appreciate your help :)

]]> Comment on Pitfalls: “Married TO,” Not “Married WITH” by Clarissa http://www.readableblog.com/2008/01/21/pitfalls-married-to-not-married-with/comment-page-1/#comment-67432 Clarissa Tue, 09 Aug 2011 02:54:49 +0000 http://www.readableblog.com/2008/01/21/pitfalls-married-to-not-married-with/#comment-67432 I’m really sorry for the delay. It’s possible if “with” is more common than “to” in English, but I think “to” is more common, so I don’t actually think it’s likely. Hmm. Interesting question! Well, you know, on second thought, it might be possible — most other “activity” words use “with” in English, so if the kid is very young and knows other words like “play ball with” and “eat lunch with,” and thinks of marriage as a very simple activity like that, I do think it’s possible! Only for a very small child, though. I’m sorry that my answer is probably useless at this point.

I’m wondering if you know an answer to a related question, if it’s not too late to ask three years after your original posting.
I’ve been trying to figure out if an English speaking child would be likely to make such a mistake, i.e. to say “married with”. What is your opinion about it? (I’m trying to find an English equivalent for a translation where in the original a child makes a grammar mistake when speaking about marriage in Russian). Thanks, Eli.
