Typo and Grammer Errors Options

[Golden Thief]

Thought you might want us to post all the typo and grammer errors in one spot so that whoever is doing the corrections doesn't have to hunt for them posted all over the place.
This only came to after I saw the second one.
Also could you tell us how much of the exact text do you need to be able to find and correct it.
Here is one.
Fake Arundel: Arundel is bleeding......"There is a portal in his room you may use to come back to you world."
Wouldn't this be better as "... go back to your world"?

Cheers

Hi Jan,

"... nonetheless, it was still a shock to see him *standing* there..." sure does sound a whole lot better. I've never heard the phrase; "... nonetheless it was still a shock seeing him stood there..." It may be grammatically correct but it sure is tough to wrap my brain around the sound of it. 

What I have seen in which they use 'stood' is somethihng like this: "...nonetheless it was still a shock to see him as he stood there..."  How does this work?

Vlad or Jan, can you also make this topic a sticky please. 

Hi John,
Sorry if my phrasing is giving your brain a hard time.

Your phrase: "...nonetheless it was still a shock to see him as he stood there..." puts my brain in a whirl because it is telling me *was* is past tense and *as* is present tense in this particulat phrase.

The written word is often so much different to the way it is phrased when spoken. I have tried to write my dialogues, using the words/phrases in a manner I believe the characters would speak them. (sometimes bending the grammar a little if I believe the NPC. would do so. )

Now, lets try and get rid of all this squirliness of the brains, I am happy with my original phrasing, "... nonetheless it was still a shock seeing him stood there...but I will leave it to Vlad to change it to "... nonetheless it was still a shock seeing him stood there..." if he so wishes, after all, both are grammatically correct.
