Is something not a sentence if it's misspelled?

What if you are telling someone to be the fourth person to march?

"Amy, you're first. Sally goes second. Andy comes after her," said the Sargent.
"Billy?" he asked as he surveyed the room.
"Yes, sir?" Billy reponded.
"March fourth." the Sargent said, assertively.

If the sentence's meaning depends on the spelling, such that the (in this case) two words, if spelled correctly, would lose the semantic integrity that make them a sentence, then basically yes.
JaimeR (100 D)

Yoyo. You're not wrong, but by that logic, every day is a sentence. "When were you born?" "July third.". Bo's point was different, and in the sense he meant it, he was incorrect.

"July third" doesnt have a subject or a verb, therefore it isnt a sentence. "March fourth" does. The subject is you and the verb is "march," much like how the subject in "March forth" is you and and the verb is "march."

Um, Bo. just a question. On March 14th will we celebrate Pi day in this thread or is this reserved only for vernacular themed days? Should we relegate all mathematical themed days to a secondary thread?

July 22nd is a better pi day usually, but not this year, as one can get to nine decimal places on March 14th -- 3/14/15 9:26:53

Accused Rapist Found Dead, Authorities Frame Would-Have-Been Rape Victim for Murder
https://firstlook.org/theintercept/2015/03/12/murderinvegas/

How a 100-pound 18-year old female could leave semen in the rectum of a man she beats, strangles, and slits the throat of from hundreds of miles away while leaving no evidence to tie her to the crime is something someone really needs to explain to me.

FTF, all the rage!!!
As I now have played a few games with Jimthegrey and the Chicago Weasels, I find the games to be very tiring, and loss of concentration becomes an issue for me. I have proposed to that group to try to play a live FTF game, using WebDip as the platform. So no board required and everyone needs their tablet or phone and access to Internet.

Has anyone done this before?

R.I.P. Terry Pratchett
Fantasy author Terry Pratchett has died today. I'm sure many of us have enjoyed his books. In particular I think "Night Watch", one of the later Discworld novels, is a very good work indeed. RIP Terry.
