The email read: “I know you are an educated person, but I have one thing for you to consider and that is the pronunciation of gerrands [sic]. I can’t imagine sending your children to school saying ‘goen, comen, laughen,’ etc. It’s sooo wrong and yet you seem to drop the ings all the time.”
It continued: “You are a remarkable, professional person and should consider being the best you can be and speaking as correctly to those who watch you. You are a role model.”

She finished by adding: “Dropping the ‘ing’ and replacing it with ‘en’ is cutsie and the weather is not cutsie,” before signing the email with “Judy”.
