Parrots bond hard with their people
Am I wrong or is that headline really poor English?
Extraneous "and"
That or an extraneous that
It makes sense if you read it as the caption for the picture
No, I realize it's a parrot. There is either an extra and or an extra that.
They mean that grammatically, if you read it as a label, it works because "This is ..." Is implied, and thus corrects the grammar
Maybe but doesn't requiring a pair of implied words still mean it's bad English?
It's "headline English", not "conversational English". In context, it works.
Yeah I'm not defending it, it's bad. But i see what the other commenter is saying
Yeah, I understood what it said but had to read it a few times. Plus so far I've seen 3 responses on how to fix it so it's not impossible to catch I editing...
