An American was visiting Oxford University for the first time, and stopped a passing Oxford don to ask a question.
"Excuse me," said the American, "can you tell me if that's Trinity College I'm looking at?
"You are probably unaware" sneered the don, "that you have just ended your sentence with a preposition. You may wish to rephrase your question."
The American began again: "Can you tell me if that's Trinity College I'm looking at, YOU JERK!"
