| I'm confused by this thread. I thought Higgins' skill was his uncanny ability to tell WHERE people came from based on their accents and pronunciation, not on how perfect their grammar was. Is there anything in Pygmalion OR My Fair Lady that says that Higgins is at all interested in the correct application of grammatical rules? |
