* "value" should have a D. Valued. It's past tense. I made a typo / grammar error in a bug report about a typo / grammar error. � |

Both are grammatically correct, s/d. Present tense means that it's the most current info. Past tense adds doubt (implied subjunctive; you're getting into the deep lore of grammar). I think this line is supposed to be going for "the subject's current beliefs", so I believe your original post is more correct. If you speak more languages, that's probably tripping you up. Because in Spanish and Portuguese, for example, it's all a past event that's no longer active; it's all past tense. |
