      Having a grammar query: "Why did Jane write this?" & "Jane wrote this". Surely Jane is the subject both times? Why different tense?

      @thmsbsh "did" is the marker of the preterit it's the same tense. Like you'd say "Jane says this" & what "what does Jane say?" both present

          @thmsbsh Google has a really nice etymology tool where they show you how words travelled. They show you how those words didn't come to you

          @thmsbsh Latin didn't words didn't magically travel to the UK. They were imported by the people you want to stop from teaching you grammar
