"He had recently underwent ..."

Oh, my poor ears!

If this were an isolated instance, I wouldn't write about it, but it's not - it's all too common, I'm afraid, including such oddities as "I should have went ..."

What are these people doing in school?!?

Better question: What do they teach them in school? Are the teachers themselves so ignorant? Are there no standards when writing essays? Are classes in grammar and vocabulary so deficient?

This is my soap box: Proper conjugations should be taught in grammar school, and by the time someone reaches the professional ranks, such "rank" errors ought to be gone for good!

The above two examples were spoken by professionals.
