This is an old email that I had composed and senT when a colleague of mine got fed up with the usage of these 2 words among our colleagues especially Keralites.

Subject: The Difference Between Sending Something & Having Already Sent It
Importance: High

THIS IS BEING SENt ON POPULAR DEMAND

Kindly Note : SEND & SENT are different words

There are no words as senDed, senTed or senTing

Before senDing something make sure that you have not senT it already.
While senDing something make sure that you senD it to the right person.
Before senDing something make sure that you are senDing it to the right person.

To senD something tomorrow please make sure that when you senD it today, it is senT to the right people.

If you have already senT it then you have not forgotten to senD it ;-)

----------------
TIP

: 'senD' is used for present & future tense
: 'senT' only for past tense.
----------------
By the time you reach home, he would have senT it.

Here the past tense version is used in the future tense because it is explaining a situation in the future after we have been 'transported'(senT?) there.
----------------
Did he senD it ?

Here we have been transported to the past and that time is now our 'virtual' present from which we will then make the sentence.

Idea no ?
----------------
Did he senD it ?
Was he senDing it when you were there ?
Will he senD it ?
Has he senT it ?
Is he senDing it ?
Will he be senDing it ?
Was it senT ?
Will it be senT?

Erros with this form ...

Sent to Customercare@TATA-AIG.com
Hi TATA-AIG,
From your feedback webpage, I have sent you a message asking you to expect THIS email. My complaints are as follows.
1. Wrong Spelling of places.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Your Spelling of South Indian places reflects a strong North Indian Pronunciation bias.
It is "Kerala" or "Keralam" NOT "Kerela". 4rth letter is an "A" and not an "E" .
It is "Angamaly" or "Ankamāli" but NOT "Angamally". Avoid the double "l".
It is "Alappuzha" NOT "Allapuzah".
Only 1 "l" but 2 "p"s.
Also ends as "zha" and not as "zah"
It is NOT "Aleppey Arcade" but "Alleppey Arcade". There are 2 "l"s here.
NOT "Kasargod" but "Kasargode". Add an "e".
NOT "Malapupuram" but "Malappuram".
NOT "Muvattapuzha" OR "Muvattupuza" but "Muvattupuzha". 7th letter is "u" and not "a". Also ends in "zha".
NOT "Perintalmanna" but "Perinthalmanna".
Add an "h" after the "t".
NOT "Thiruvandapuram" but "Thiruvananthapuram". This mistake occurs for the 2nd branch in the branch locator.
2. The Feedback form is buggy
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Why do you not allow us to enter special characters? Even "quotes" and question marks are not allowed.
3. Error Messages are also faulty
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
The error message that pops up says "No Specialchars allowed".
====hopefully you will correct these when I check in later====
