Rein vs. Reign. FATALITY!
May. 18th, 2008 05:55 pmThe next time I see "take the reigns" or that a subject "has free reign" in print, I will have to slap the writer.
I mean, theoretically "free reign" COULD be correct. But it's NOT.
You take the reins and are given free rein. OK?
Yes, in the latter case, it means you're being compared to a horse. Deal.
