While reading work in SYW and in other online critique forums I've noticed that Americans seem to use "spit" as past tense for "spits"
Is this well...normal?
I've always been taught that "spat" is past tense.
"John spat on the ground" is how I would say it, but I see "John spit on the ground" and no-one else mentions it as an issue. Basically, am I missing something here?
