Dear members,

Is the punctuation correct for the following sentence?

Since you've decided to start dissing Barbaro again, I have a
question for you. When are you going to write your column defending
Michael Vick?

Yes, it's fine. Please note that 'dissing' is a slang term.

Hi,

So what should I use instead of 'dissing' here? I didn't say you couldn't use it. I just said that it was slang. That's OK in situations where slang is acceptable. I wouldn't say it, for example, to the Queen of England or in a job interview or in a college essay.

Since you've decided to start being disrespectful to Barbaro again, I have a
question for you. When are you going to write your column defending
Michael Vick?

Best wishes, Clive
