The past tense of “text”…“texted” or “text.” And, the plural form of “mouse” when referring to a computer mouse…“mice” or “mouses.” Having an arguement with someone about both.
I am going to say
texted
mice
I “text” you yesterday about this shit.
It just doesn’t sound right…
Correct grammar would be “text messaged”
You ain’t making no sense with that shit.

I think using text in the past tense is in poor form.
Texted, and mice or mouses is acceptable.
Is this what our world is coming to?
i text you yesterday <–dumb
i texted you yesterday <–meh
i sent you a text yesterday <–winnar
did you receive my text from yesterday? <–another winnar
God there should be tons of people who reply in here…i really think we should have a spell check on this forum
i get the red line under my words if there misspelled, unless that’s firefox
“I sent you a text.” would be proper.
The word “text” isn’t a fucking verb.
The plural from of mouse is mice.
deer
Mouses ??? lol
I knew the answers to these before I looked them up, but here it is from the dictionary. I have four published authors in my family, I’ve been published in short story format, I majored in Rhetoric, I have taught SAT verbal/written for 6 years now, and about 40% of my daily work is copywriting.
