document.write("Hi Mike and Fiona<br /><br />Thanks for your comments on the article; we really appreciate the feedback.  The UCT (Law@Work) Business Writing and Legal Documents Course is based on British English, which is most used in South Africa.  A difficulty with this is that most computer spelling and grammar checkers use American English. <br /><br />You would be  quite right about the use of ‘round’ and ‘around’ if you were using standard American English.  In American usage, ‘round’ is confined to specific, fixed expressions like, “all year round” and “round and round in circles.”  In British English the words are interchangeable in most contexts, with ‘round’ being used for more definite movements, “he looked round,” and ‘around’ being more general, “she wandered around the ruins all morning.”  <br /><br />You’re correct about the missing apostrophe in the “…misuse of ‘that and ‘which’…”<br /><br />The apostrophe is rarely used to indicate the plural.  “…knowing our Ps and Qs…” is correct but so would be, “knowing our p’s and q’s.”  I think using the capitals makes it easier.<br /><br />The examples used in the Grammar and Spelling paragraphs are intentionally incorrect.  They are supposed to illustrate common mistakes. - Anton<br />. Anton");
