You should reply that actually the correct pronunciation, and spelling, of 'elementarie' is to stress all syllables equally as it is a Norman French word.

I hate English language pedants, the langue is too messed up to get pedantic about.

Just today someone told me you cant have 'hung' a man, he has to be 'hanged', because he read it in a dictionary. Complete bollocks. Its a weak/strong verb difference, that's all, like learnt/learned, wove/weaved etc.

You CAN split the infinitive and you can say 'john and me'. Mad | :mad:

Anyway, rant over. Smile | :)
