This thread is for tropers who have trouble with English and would like some help with the crazy grammar of this crazy language.
Write down what you wish to edit on the wiki. If you have been suspended from editing, another troper might be kind enough to edit for you after your suggestions have been corrected.
The thread is for help and feedback on your own suggested edits.
If you want help correcting other people's edits (e.g., if you find a page which seems to have grammar problems but want a second opinion, or you don't feel able to fix it by yourself) then that's off-topic here, but we have a separate Grammar Police cleanup thread
that can provide assistance.

- Kappa Mikey: If you look closely, you'll notice that Mitsuki is bustier than Lily.
- Steven Universe: Pearl is very thin, has no visible bust and is also very uptight. Amethyst, on the other hand, is curvier than her and in contrast is very cheerful and hedonistic.
- Total Drama: While Heather is by no means flat, she's all noticeably smaller than Lindsay in cup and heart size.
- Easily Forgiven: Branch quickly accepts Clay's, who also apologizes on behalf of their brothers, apology for leaving him and missing out of seeing him grow up.
- Shared Life Energy: Branch, John Dory, Spruce and Clay unknowingly shared their life essences with Floyd, which revived him from his Disney Death.

- No Matter How I Look at It, It's You Guys' Fault I'm Not Popular!: Averted with Tomoko. Despite being the only girl at school who wears tights, she's covert pervert and there's almost nothing proper about her.
- Urusei Yatsura: Sakura in the anime 2022 is shown wearing capron tights under her long dress and white robe.
- South Park: Sophie Grey from the episode "Basic Cable" is the first girl at school to wear a skirt with tights and compared to the other girls (who all wear pants) she's pretty chaste and wholesome.
Konosuba may have been a comedy anime, but it surprisingly has its fair share of sad moments despite its black comedy.
- Keele and his wife's backstory. Despite his cheerful personality it's hard not to feel bad for him and what he has to go through due to his immense love toward his wife. Keele was a wizard who fell in love with the daughter of a nobleman and devoted his life to learning magic. By the time he was finished, he wished to be with a woman he fell in love with when the king asked what he would wish. When the king refuses, Keele breaks his lover out of the kingdom leading to him being an enemy to everyone. Despite finally getting married, when he was wounded Keele wished he could protect his wife leading to him not just becoming a lich but also having immortality. It wasn't until his wife died that he could not kill himself just to rejoin her in the afterlife. The only reason why Keele died is thanks to Aqua purifying him after showing his wife's remains and why he is a lich in the first place. Even Aqua, who is usually antagonistic towards undead creatures, understood the tragedy of Keele's situation and asked Eris to ensure that he could be reunited with his deceased wife.

- Achilles' Heel: Luffy often struggles when facing opponents who rely on cunning and deceptive tactics as their primary mode of attack. Zoro explicitly points out this vulnerability during the Thriller Bark arc.
- Know When to Fold 'Em: Even the most stubborn of individuals, like Luffy, can come to the realization that sometimes it's wiser to back down when there is no clear path to victory, or the stakes simply aren't high enough to warrant a fight.

I don't see any improper English in those examples.
Thanks Arivne.

Thanks, Arivne.
- Adaptational Sexuality: "With You, Always" features some Ship Tease between Hilda and Frida. In the show proper, Hilda doesn't develop any feelings for or get together with anyone, while the third season has some very subtle Ship Tease between Frida and David.
YMMV.Hilda:
- Ship-to-Ship Combat: Ironically, for a show that almost doesn't have romance, there's a bit of friction between Hilda/Frida shippers and David/Hilda shippers. Frida/Hilda fans point to Frida being able to keep up with Hilda and their witch/familiar dynamic in season 2, while David/Hilda fans point to David sticking by Hilda when Frida falls out with them in season 1 and David being nicer in general. While nothing is confirmed, the show would seemingly throw a wrench into both ships by having some minor Ship Tease between David/Frida.
(Frida)
- Academic Alpha Bitch: Downplayed. Frida is generally a pleasant individual, but her desire to excel and be The Perfectionist at everything can cause her to be a bossy, arrogant, and self-absorbed jerk on occasion, especially in the latter half of season 1, where she firmly grabs the Jerkass Ball and temporarily breaks up her friendship with Hilda and David after the former fails to get her book back and the latter teases her for not cleaning her room. She eventually outgrows this behavior from season 2 onwards.
YMMV.Velma:
- Fanon: In one episode of Season 2, fans immediately noticed that two of the classmates besides Velma and Daphne greatly resemble the original Daphne and Velma. Naturally, many of the show's detractors began theorizing that they're the actual Daphne and Velma, while the ones the show had focused on are "frauds", with some joking that the show had been focusing on the "wrong" incarnations.
YMMV.The Garfield Show:
- Memetic Mutation The scene of Jon finding Nermal in the trashcan in "King Nermal" would garnered memetic status thanks to a re-edit by iFunny user Sillyfield that changes it to make it seem like Jon is looking at a dead Nermal in the trashcan nonchalantly before closing the lid, paired with the caption "Me coming home to see my child after my wife has a postpartum psychotic episode." The sheer audacity and Black Comedy of the scenario would quickly cause it to blow up in early 2024, with many redraws and edits of the edited scene following suit.

- Achilles' Heel:
- After Luffy started using his "Gears" to match powerful opponents, it became clear that there was a downside to them. They all had an Hour of Power drawback that restricted the amount of time he could utilize them during combat. This vulnerability left him defenseless when time ran out, which was a significant problem when he couldn't defeat his adversary beforehand, particularly before the Time Skip during the Paramount War Saga. However, through additional training during and after the two-year time skip, Luffy made notable progress in mitigating this flaw in his fighting style.
Red Forman
- Bald of Authority: As the head of the household, Red balances discipline and affection with his family.
- Good Parents: Red may be strict but he is an excellent father when compared to the rest of the gang's parents. He is not neglectful like Hyde and Jackie's parents, he enforces discipline unlike Donna's parents, and he is not a dumbass like Kelso's parents. He ensures that Eric is not squandering his life and honors his choices as long as he stays true to his word. Red also shows the same care towards his son's friends, to the extent that Hyde and Jackie view him as a better father figure compared to their own. In the sequel series, he dotes on his granddaughter and isn't as tough on her as he is with Eric.
- Jerkass to One: Michael Kelso remains at the forefront of Red's list of disliked individuals due to his foolishness and knack for creating trouble. Even after mellowing out in the sequel series, he still hates Kelso to the point of extending his hatred to Kelso's son, Jay.
- Leaning on the Fourth Wall: In That '90s Show, Red is angry that Kitty has "opened their house to chaos again", especially since things were calm when "all the dumbasses were gone".
- Teen Hater: Red harbors a strong dislike for the youngsters in Point Place, mostly because he thinks they're annoying and wasting on their youth. He's even mentioned how happy he is when the neighborhood kids avoid him. In the sequel series, as much he loves Leia, he is notably upset when his granddaughter brings her friends over, disrupting his cherished peace.

Hello, near the beginning of the year, somebody blocked my page from making edits, and I need help checking what I did wrong. Please help me correct whatever prose I fouled up so I may be recognized again as a troper. On that note, I would like to add some things to a couple of character pages.
[[folder:Uatu]]
Voiced By: Jeffrey Wright (English), Kazuhiko Inoue (Japanese)
Appearances: What If...? | Thor: Love and Thunder note | I Am Groot
- Played for Laughs: How his reaction to what's outside his purview represents itself as in season two of What Ifs, episode 5. When Captain Carter is suddenly snatched up from her native universal placement just moments before, the truly unexpected occurs. Even he's left wondering, "What The!?" after her sudden disappearance.
Uatu the Watcher: I am the watcher. I see all, I observe all, I kn— Beat What the hell is this!?
Dune (Denis Villeneuve): Corrino Empire and Bene Gesserit
[[folder:Reverend Mother Mohiam]]
Played By: Charlotte Rampling Other Languages
Appearances: Dune: Part One | Dune: Part Two
- Abomination Accusation Attack: Mother Mohiam gives a rather subtle, completely disheleved & unnerved one upon being beholden to Paul Attredies Compelling Voice. This act was most likely done in hushed murmuring to avoid arousing Muad'Dib's anger further, or perhaps because she is a Dirty Coward.
- Nice Job Fixing It, Villain: The very house the Reverend Mother moved to have exterminated ended up giving rise to an heir of her fabricated prophecy who ultimately became a detriment to the empire, unmooring all of her and the Bene Gesserit's grand plans. Her scheming with the former ruler of the same interstellar power created the exact scenario Mohiam plotted so meticulously to avoid.

- Tengen Toppa Gurren Lagann: This series inverts the stereotype. While Yoko is bustier, she is the more stern and short-tempered of the pair, whereas Nia is more gentle and naive.
- Danganronpa 2: Goodbye Despair: Mikan Tsumiki is one of the bustiest girls in this part. Her bully Hiyoko Saionji, on the other hand, has flat cheast and an overall more childish appear.
- Magical Girl Friendship Squad: Sassy Butch Lesbian Daisy has boyish flat chest, while quieter heterosexual Alex has a more large breast.

- Claymore: Raki. He's maybe the only human in all the story who isn't cruel or cynical.
- Talentless Nana: Michiru. She is one of the friendliest members of the talented.
- Penguindrum: Himari is a very affectionate and caring girl, especially when not being controlled by the Crystal Princess.
- Rosario + Vampire: Moka. Yukari simply adores her.
- Naruto: Most likely Hinata. She has quite a few Les Yay moments with some of the other girls. She's also one of the only two people Sakura has never gotten mad at (the other being — Sasuke, her crush), and she generally has an inexplicable desire to protect Hinata from everything.
- Tengen Toppa Gurren Lagann: Nia is liked by many of the males in Dai-Gurren, but the females seem to be crazy about her as well. For example, when Adian attacks her, you can see that the females rush to save her as eagerly as the males. Also, Kiyal admires her almost as much as she used to admire Kamina. Even Yoko, who didn't trust her at first, defrost out after the beache episode and begins to regret the way she treated her at first.

- Bleach: Averted with Ichigo. A lot of people think he's uncool because of his hair color and girly name. But they're very wrong about him.
- Futurama: Fry. He has red hair and is a Loser Protagonist.
- Littlest Pet Shop (2012): Russell, the orange-brown hedgehog embodies quite a few negative stereotypes about nerds. He's also not very lucky.
