[edit] r.e. Rooibos and grammar

Hello! While I would not consider myself an English language grammar specialist, the line "In South Africa it is more usual to drink rooibos with milk and sugar..." sounds awkward. The replacement of the word usual with common is a more appropriate choice. The word usual could be used if the structure of the sentence were changed to: "In South Africa, roiboos is usually drunk with milk and sugar...". However this requires modification to the word usual. Alternatively, you could say "In South Africa, the usual manner to drink roiboos is with milk and sugar...". In the same manner, you would not use the word habitual to say "more habitual". You would say "habitually". I'm not sure of the specific grammatical protocols regarding this, and I'm completely open to being shown how wrong I am on the matter. Cheers. Halogenated (talk) 03:52, 19 January 2008 (UTC)
