hi ๐
just fyi:
"teach" is one of those words in English that has a different suffix for it's past-tense: it is "taught".
Eg. "They taught me to sew."
"teached" is improper.
Note: not to be confused with "taut" which is pronounced the same.
:)
I had originally wrote taught but i confused it with "pulling something tight" so i went with what would get the point across even if it was wrong.
Edit: fixed it now
No judgment, I think its interesting the little high-stakes decisions we make like this though.
"Oh no which spelling is it? Is there time to search it up? Oh no my train of thought is fading! Send send send!"
Thank you for pointing out a mistake in a very polite way while being informative. You deserve an applesauce for making a better internet ๐.
