In the U.S., the first Tuesday of November is Election Day. If you watch TV in the U.S. these days, the airwaves are filled with politicians who are campaigning. I just saw a commercial, and was appalled to hear a grammatical error..
(x) My name is John, and I approve this message.
This is wrong.
(o) My name is John, and I approved this message.
(o) My name is John and I approve of this message.
(o) My name is John, and I am in approval of this message.
Each of these three alternatives is correct, and I think that the one that you should try to learn is second example. It is the most consistent of the three.
