Today's English lesson

From Common Errors In English:



TRY AND






Although "try and" is common in colloquial speech and will usually pass unremarked there:
Did the right wing try and scam the Mexican election? (from The Left Coaster)


In your writing, try to remember to use "try to" instead of "try and."
States try to block illegal workers. (from USATODAY.com)
