When we raised the idea of \u200b\u200bopening a notebook in which we could devote our letters to the defense of the language, I thought it was great for several reasons. Among them, weighed the most is that I am one of those people who believes that, although it is logical and perhaps necessary, that the language changing and flexible to use, we must not overlook its misuse, and less if those who use it are bad people whose influence reaches the masses, such as journalists and politicians.
However, today I must break a lance for a journalist that I laughed, branded as uneducated and I would be fired from his boss a few days ago while reading your article.
devoted his writing Journalist a un curso de cocina para hombres que se estaba dando en uno de los pueblos de la provincia, y en él podía leerse la frase que, erróneamente, provocó mi indignación: "...de cocina para hombres, muchos de los cuales no han freido nunca un huevo.
Digo "erróneamente" porque, según la RAE, el verbo freir tiene dos participios, uno regular (freido, cosa que yo ignoraba) y otro irregular (frito) y, aunque el participio irregular es el que más comúnmente se utiliza, el otro participio puede igualmente utilizarse para formar los tiempos compuestos.
Por lo tanto, debo reconocer mi error y pedir humildemente perdón.
