]]> Comment on I feel badly – about some “rules” of grammar by Mark Jeranek http://metaphorical.wordpress.com/2007/01/28/i-feel-badly-about-some-rules-of-grammar/#comment-27164 Mon, 05 Nov 2012 16:01:30 +0000 http://metaphorical.wordpress.com/2007/01/28/i-feel-badly-about-some-rules-of-grammar/#comment-27164 If you want to sound like an uneducated slob use ‘badly’. From a grammar standpoint, you may only use an adjective after the verb ‘feel’, as in a Predicate Adjective. You may NOT use an adverb EVER.

Do you feel sadly? Does that sound awkward? Because that word type in that situation is WRONG.

It appears as though some of the text within your posts are running off the screen. Can someone else please comment and let me know if this is happening to them as well? This might be a problem with my web browser because I’ve had this happen
previously. Thanks
