Contrary to what this article says , there is a correct way to use "toward" and "towards", and that is never using one twice in a row. You have to alternate them each time you use one. If you just said "toward", you can't say "toward" again until you say "towards" and vice versa. If you don't do that, you seem to have such a small vocabulary that you can't give variety in your speech. CHANGE MY MIND!!!
I have stumbled upon a post by lexico saying that "cacti" is wrong, and so is "viri". They are wrong. Their logic is that since these words aren't latin in origin, we can't pluralise them with -i. Pay no attention to these ignorami. It is only correct to pluralise multisylabic words ending in "-us" and not in "-ous" with "-i" or "-odes". ie. "cactodes" and "cacti" are correct, but "cactuses" isn't, despite what Lexico would have you believe. An exception to this rule is "nucleus" when used in the context of a cell.

Preposition are great to end sentences with. In fact, the end of a sentence is where all people should want their prepositions at.

Such ugly writing is something that you should not put up with. You are the one that this should be done by. CHANGE MY MIND!!! Edit: One of the rarest rules grammatically is that when it comes to any sentence, a preposition is what it has to end with. German trennbarë verben do this, but only kind of. When a clause is what they're at the end of, a prepositional prefix is almost always not what they end with.
