asdecas Posted September 20, 2013 Share Posted September 20, 2013 Know the feeling, try waking anything Thai, be they kwaai, dog, wife or maid, when they are having a nap. Like trying to wake the dead. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

HerbalEd Posted September 20, 2013 Share Posted September 20, 2013 (edited) I would of got up, that elephant seems like a great laugh. You could have fun all day HAVE....HAVE.....You would HAVE got up. Since you started it, you're fair game: GOTTEN ... GOTTEN ... You would have GOTTEN up. And to anyone who thinks "gotten" is an Americanism ... it's not. The word was used in British English hundreds of years before America and Canada were settled.

jackr Posted September 21, 2013 Share Posted September 21, 2013 Really though, if the elephant desperately wanted to wake the sleeping dog, it would pick the thing up and fling it 15ft in the air. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And to anyone who thinks "gotten" is an Americanism ... it's not. The word was used in British English hundreds of years before America and Canada were settled. OXFORD DICTIONARY: As past participles of get, got and gotten both date back to Middle English. The form gotten is not used in British English but is very common in North American English, though even there it is often regarded as non-standard. .......TOUCHE (that's French) Edited September 22, 2013 by EveryDayTheSame Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
