I corrected a girl at work orientation today because she said something about her soon-to-be 'brother-in-laws'. I said "Sorry, but there are more than one brother, but only one law that makes them kin to you, so it is brothers-in-law" I also apologized and told her I had been working in an English classroom and didn't want her to sound dumb.
I couldn't help myself, I had to correct her.
