'But', I believe, should really be 'merely', or similar, especially if we are talking about proper english, such as that used for formal applications. 'But' is certainly more of a collaquial term.

This extract from your earlier post NOn is an amazingly good example of practical pedantry in action, and I for one heartily approve. While I was delighted with your eagle-eyed pedantic efforts, it was a little deflating to see your apology a little later on in the same post. A pedant of your obvious abilty and flair should be proud of their great contribution to society in general, and, in this specific case, for enlightening the careless Lillie Frog. Apologise no more, be loud and proud!

Classified. That is the correct spelling of the word.
Finally, I would like to confirm that the word 'English' should be capitalised, as it would be ordinarily be classifed as a proper noun.
I'm guessing that you mean in that sentence there?
Yes, that is the sentence I was talking about.

Many thanks to you for making this comment Andythepoi. I endeavoured to be as pedantic as I could; however, I note with some disappointment, that GothFrogette has managed to outsmart me and spotted an error in my spelling of the word 'classified'. I feel, therefore, that I do have to apologise again. I apologise, not for being pedantic, but for my careless disregard towards the correct spelling of the English language!Written by: GothFrogetteWritten by: MiG

"Think" should not be capitalised at that point in the sentence!
I think, I may have made it more confusing than necessary. For some reason; the exact nature of which, I do not know; being pedantic equates to using unnecessarily long words.
