Its interesting reading the bits you got wrong; my problem seems to be my punctuation and things like that rather than confusing words. I learned something new today: how to use a colon correctly. Wish they still taught grammer, spelling and punctuation at school, best we ever got was in French Writing when the teacher had to go over basic English to make up for us not learning it in English!
It would be nice if there was a cheat sheet or something similar that contained commonly misused rules.
, which - refers to the whole group
, that - refers to a subgroup
eg: The windows were all open. The windows, that were open, were shut at 4pm.
didn't know that that was a subgroup till 2 weeks ago... I feel ashamed.
