Hello, dear Workers,

Here is my Student's call for HELP! I know you'll answer him...
THERE ARE 15 MISTAKES in this text. Please, correct them in CAPITAL LETTERS;


Today, as we fling the same old insults on social media, it can be hard to find « the mot juste » for someone who really presses your buttons. At times like these, an historic dictionary can be your friend. Here are two labels that are at least five centuries old, but the individuals they describe are still instantly recognisable. «Mumpsimus» is a word that fills a such gap in our language that you may wonder how you ever lived without it. It’s a 500-years-old epithet for someone who insists he’s true though clear and incontrovertible evidence that they are not. The term originated in a much-told story about a poorly-literate Catholic priest, who consistently stripped up while reciting the post-communion prayer./// END of PART ONE /// The prayer includes the line 'Quod ore sumpsimus, Domine' ('What we have reveived in the mouth, Lord'), but the priest substituted a non-existing word 'mumpsimus' for 'sumpsimus'. He was swiftly corrected on more than one occasion, but consistently gave the stubborn response that 'I will not change my old mumpsimus for your new sumpsimus!'. Today’s potential applications, for anyone who stubbornly sticks to his old beliefs while dismissing any evidence to the contrary, are surely much broader.
Next is the person who loves to talk in length on a subject they know almost nothing about. This kind of presumptuous criticism is also known as «an ultracrepidarian»,/// END of PART TWO /// a term that has travelled across centuries thanks to a classical history of a man who dared to do comment on matters far beyond his area of expertise. That man was an unnamed cobbler from Ancient Greece, who, while observing a painting of the renowned artist Apelles, allegedly criticised the rendering of a sandal in the picture. Apelles, who apparently liked to eavesdrop on those who came to see his paintings, decided that the cobbler should stick to his own trade and desist of commenting 'ultra crepidam' ('beyond the sandal'). From here, the ultracrepidarian was born. Should you know more than one of these kinds of people, the plurals are, respectively, mumpsimuses or mumpsimi, and ultracrepidarians.

(2 new words ("swearwords" ) that you'll never use again! That's what real culture is...
Cet exercice est un et sa correction sera en ligne le lundi 12 avril, tard.

May THE FORCE be with You!

Thanks again. Though it was not an easy exercise with sentences I'm not sure I've understood thoroughly, I've found several mistakes, but certainly not all of them, and I wonder if I haven't corrected too much...

Hello, dear Here, your note has made me feel good . I am missing you too! but A penalysing nervous healness is nibbling
my nerves,expressed by legs being straight ,shivering hands . Not very harmful but tedious and sapping. But SO don't be sorry
about my prep. I can't do better.

here is the version DEAR HERE 4U, I SEND THIS PART for you to know if I am to continue(click for the grammar)

Aujourd'hui,comme nous nous servons des mêmmes insultes surrannées dans les médias, il peut ètre difficile de trouver "le mot juste" pour quelqu'un qui vous met à bout.

De nos jours un dictionaire des racines peut vous sauver. Voilà deux expressions qui ont au moins cinq siècle, mais les personnes qu'elles visent sont encore reconnues instantanément ."Mumpsimus"est un mot qui remplit tellement bien un tel manque de notre langue, que vous pouvez vous demander comment vous avez pu vivre sans elle.

C'est un mot vieux de 500 ans qui décrit quelqu'un qui insiste qu' il est honnête , alors qu'il est clair et irréfutable qu'il ne l'est pas.
le terme vient d'une histoire bien connue d'un curé catholique peu lettré qui, chaque fois trébuchait pendant qu'il récitait la prière de communion.( I'm not a catholic) ///FIN DE la PARTIE 1///
