Thumbs down Please learn how to properly conjugate verbs

It annoys me to no end when people fail to properly conjugate the verb "be" (as in "to be"), no matter if it's past, present, or future tense.

Example:
It's not was you, but were you.
It's not was we, but were we.

I used those two examples above b/c I have several co-workers, including one who is currently working towards her MPA (bless their hearts b/c they are such sweethearts), but when they open their mouths and speak, I dayum near cringe.

PSA - "Conversate" and "irregardless" are not words. Please repeat this sentence as often as needed until the concept is firmly placed into your brain.
Thank you for your cooperation in this matter.
