I'm studying Information Technology Engineering at the Politecnico di Milano, after enjoying an Erasmus period by the Vrije Universiteit. I moderate Gaming, whine on Twitter and lurk on Youtube.

Mah reps, let me show you them.

Apr 4	comment	'How to' vs 'How do I' "For one thing, it has no subject." well that's kind of not accidental, however. "How would someone, anyone do X? It doesn't matter who, please don't tailor your answer with anybody specific in mind." I can understand if omitting the subject entirely is not the correct way to make the subject as generic as possible but... :)
Jan 13	comment	How do “need” and “not” mix and match? @Jay oh, so the split infinitive rule says you do not split infinitives. Intuitive. :)
Jan 13	comment	How do “need” and “not” mix and match? I'm sorry, the comments on the question drove me to add another form I'm now no longer sure about. Please see the updated question.

Jan 13	comment	How do “need” and “not” mix and match? @RandomIdeaEnglish Isn't "to not X" the correct way to negate an infinitive? Or is that what "split infinitive" is all about? What about "You need not to play" then?
Jan 13	comment	How do “need” and “not” mix and match? @PeterShor I'm sorry if the last bit was confusing - I was just wondering if "don't need to" worked like "don't have to", "need to not" worked like "must not" and "needn't" worked like "mustn't" as far as negation of the auxiliary vs negation of verb is concerned. The answer is negative, indeed I was thinking 2 and 3 would be the same.
