No, it's just that in contraction the negative always joins to the verb, not the word preceding it. You'll only notice that difference with inverted word orders though, because of weird English grammar. If anything it's "Do not you" (separating the negation and the verb) being grammatically incorrect as the weird thing in all this.

No.

Just move "not" to the right of "you":

>>3159900

You're both wrong.

>>3159902
Do you have a source for this?

>>3159913
Epic ruse

>>3159917
The last time I took a class on linguistics was something like 6 years ago, my memory's fuzzy. Should be explained though in any good English grammar book though, or if you look up "inversion negation english word order" or something like that.

I can't stand her face or her godfuck whiny voice, but those mammaries are splendiforous.

GUYS
HEY GUYS
GUYS!!!
'Do not you?' is not grammatically incorrect.

>>3159949
Do not you think it sounds strange?

>>3159952
so?

tons of grammatically incorrect sentences sound strange

>>3159957
I'm sure he meant 'grammatically correct'; I just couldn't let that go.

>>3159896
I really like her boobs. Like, they're great.

>>3159975
Too bad her upper lip ruins everything

>>3159976
>
Are you kidding me? Imagine how those would feel.

>>3159980
Still ugly.

>>3159986
You need to get your eyes tested if you think that woman is ugly

>>3159990

Not him, but I definitely agree. What makes a person attractive is pretty dynamic from person to person

>>3159990
Like, she's hot. But she'd be hotter if her upper lip wasn't so thick.

Of course it is
You see, when Shakespeare invented the English language back in the 16th century,
he wrote down all these grammatical rules as to how the language should be used,
but over the centuries people cut corners, took shortcuts, and sometimes just flat out ignored his rules, resulting in the mess we have today.

>>3159990
>You need to get your eyes tested if you think that woman is ugly

My child, tits + push-up bra + low-cut dress != pretty woman.

(Maybe you're an American; in your part of the world, 'pretty' is just code for 'not a 200 pound landwhale'.)

>>3160039
She has the same face as a guy I used to go to school with.

>>3160034

And Paris Hilton's knees are too pointy. Screw you, that woman is really hot, and she looks like great fun in a 'I have a coke habit' kinda way.

>>3160034
It's glaringly obvious that you're an actual homosexual

>>3160044
see >>3160039

>>3160050
For not being attracted to a woman with a real bad case of man face? Her clown make-up can't even hide it.

>>3160044
And, oh darling, that bastard used you then cast you aside, like a worn-out hankerchief. Right?

>>3160041
>>3160039
> that woman is really hot

Y'all kids really need to get laid.

>>3160039
>an actual homosexual
Like, a real life one?

>>3160059
Yes

faggot

>>3160055
No, he had special needs. It ws one of those classroom integration things.

I'd bet two of my toes that the people saying that woman's ugly have fat aspies for girlfriends, or nothing but bitter loneliness.

>>3160069
And I'll bet you like nine of my teeth that they're just faggots.

>>3160069

Which two?

>>3160074
>not knowing ways to get toes

>>3159952
It sounds strange, but "don't you" does not sound so strange. No point in breaking it down until it sounds strange.

"I am come" is also correct and sounds wrong as fuck.

>>3160097
>I am come
Like Al Green's "Here I am Come and Take Me"

>>3160097
I prefer "I just ejaculated" instead.
