Time flies like an arrow
Fruit flies like a bananaYou'd think they'd like grapes more.
Are you talking about fruit flies or time flies?
Who let the dogs bowl
Strike. Strike. Strike strike strike. Strike!
Hey Nico, it's your dog, let's go bowling
Aw shit. Here we go again.
Non native so maybe it just gets lost, but I don't get it?
Is the error that the possessive 's is missing at 'dogs' ? If so, then its plural... I don't get it ^^'
Yes, they forgot the apostrophe, so the Dad took "Have you seen the dogs bowl?" to mean "Have you seen the dogs go bowling?"
Have you seen the bowl belonging to the dog? (The intended question of the asker. You're right, it's missing the possessive.)
vs.
Have you seen the dogs bowling? (The dad's perfect misinterpretation.)
You're on the right track. The possessive 's is missing which would make it the bowl of the dog (as intended). The way it is written, "bowl" could be a verb as in "have you seen the dogs when they bowl". Hope that makes sense and I'm a non native myself so not 100% sure myself
Yep, that's it. This way "bowl" becomes a verb and the sentence means "Have you seen the dogs play bowling?".
If only there'd been an apostrophe....
Dad saw this as a teachable moment.
Dad, noticing the missing apostrophe
"Oh-ho, the game is afoot!"
at first i though this was talking about the Puppy Bowl that is broadcasted before the superb owl, and yes, it is something that everyone should watch
It used to be at the same time, so you'd have to choose between the two
You know which one I was more interested in
Wait, if it's not providing a better alternative to the sportsball then what even is the point?
