Has anyone addressed this before? The past participle of "swim" is "swum." "Swam" is the simple past. You can say, "I swam three times last week" or "I have swum in that pool many times," but you can never say "I have swam ..." It's simply not correct English.
Sorry to be persnickety, but as a former book editor, it drives me crazy every time I see it, and I see it increasingly more often now that I spend so much time here.:nono:
:lmao: You beat That Guy to it, James! I thought for sure he would be the first one to respond. :cheerleader:
On a side note...last Saturday at the PNA Champs...I was the first one into the pool (even ahead of That Guy) for warmups. :banana: This was also a first!!
I'm also sure That Guy will come up with a better grammar phrase than I did anyway...
