Server Problems Snippet: 'have went'

Discussion in 'Miscellaneous' started by 607, Sep 29, 2017.

  1. "have went"?
  2. must have, went wrong, basically two different statements in one sentence.

  3. Nope. "Something must have..." That doesn't make sense.

  4. Yeah it does. Something (a thing) must have (most definitely has) went wrong (broken).
    Basically, something has broken.

  5. That's the same thing. 'have' is followed by present perfect, not simple past.

  6. I'm not quite sure what you aren't understanding here, that is correct.

  7. Don't confuse us poor non-native speakers. My English teacher spent I don't know how much time explaining it must be "has gone wrong", and now you're undoing all his work.

    OTOH, I never liked that teacher very much anyway.
  8. Yeah, it's not has gone wrong in this context, don't listen to that teacher =P
    It would either be something has gone wrong, or something must have gone wrong.

  9. How isn't it??
    I'll wait for Ulti himself to reply, he generally knows what he's talking about. :p
    (Yes, staff, I realise this is off-topic, but I am more inclined to do it here, as this thread is generally a bit of a mess anyway, because of its purpose.)
  10. Has went is k when it comes to verbal language, but it is wrong gramatically. Went is simple past, whereas has + [verb in past participle] is present perfect.
    This is internet lingo tho so not like grammar matters too much
    So much yes

    But uhh yeah the server problems...

  12. Eh, I know, but Ulti generally tries to keep his posts void of any grammatical mistakes, as I do too, so I figured I'd point it out. :)

    The server problems have subsided, right?
  13. Really You guys out of what he said you want to correct his grammar but are not excited by these developments of new voter things?
    How do you know about them ?
  14. I'm pretty sure Ulti was being ironic. ;)

  16. why am I being pinged by this?
    what'd I do?
  17. It may be because I split posts off of the server issues thread... Oh boy I really hope it doesn't copy every 'watcher' from that thread when posts are moved....

  18. it probably did
  19. Sounds like something worth testing, but chances are it didn't copy, since even I didn't get an alert (and I made a comment)
