I am not sure what has gotten into me this week. I had two Us Weekly inspired posts (here and here) and now I am talking about 50 Shades of Grey. Well, all is not lost. My friends at Grammarly analyzed E. L. James’ erotic novel 50 Shades of Grey after it got a ton of criticism for being poorly written. (As an aside, if you need a laugh? check out The Onion’s movie review of the 50 Shades movie. I am not sure if anyone will provide this type of counterpoint for the movie.)
Think 50 Shades is poorly written? The Grammarly team reviewed the book for spelling, grammar, and punctuation errors, and learned that “although there were some mistakes, the errors were in alignment with similar gaffes in celebrated romances.” They went on to say, “it seems that the language of love really is a language of its own!”
Check out this awesome infographic they made:
Did you read 50 Shades or see the movie? I did not, but maybe now I will. Or maybe I will just read about it in US Weekly. The latter is most likely true!
Please note: I was not compensated for this post. I just think it is good stuff and wanted to share it.
