Stopping/Staying
 

Following robchester's thread........ Do you say stopping or staying?
My mate in England say's stuff like "my cousin is stopping at our house for a few days". But if I was saying that I'd say "staying at our house"
I would say staying up, not stopping up. Opinions?:p

Re: Stopping/Staying
 

I would say staying in both those examples

Re: Stopping/Staying
 

"proper" English would suggest staying being the correct term in the above examples but,who gives a damn - say what you like, how you like!

Although, I would say staying

Stopping over innit :takeabow:

Re: Stopping/Staying
 

Stopping in both cases:)

Re: Stopping/Staying
 

staying, but doesn't really make a difference does it!

Re: Stopping/Staying
 

I guess it's just like the dinner/tea thread. There will always be differences of opinion depending on where you live/ were brought up.

I wouldn't say it matters or either one was correct

dialect I guess, we dont all speak the Queens english. I should however, write it as it is meant to be written.

Re: Stopping/Staying
 

Staying, every time.

Re: Stopping/Staying
 

STAYING.

That is all!
