I seen, I done.
Helper verbs are WAY over their heads. "I have seen" --woah that's too difficult.
People on TV think all verbs add an -ed at the end. They don't know about verbs that change in the middle.
The other night I heard "shined" when they should have said "shone".
Nobody knows about the past perfect tense! I'm no English major but I was awake in school.
They read repetitive scripts on the TV news. I heard them say they "found a little boy hidden in hiding".
