Welcome, Elizabeth!

Can I have an s on the end of the word? Loves? Not Love? Just checking. Sorry if it's a silly question!

Crystal wrote: "Can I have an s on the end of the word? Loves? Not Love? Just checking. Sorry if it's a silly question!"

Not a silly question at all! I will accept "loves" or "love's," yes. Reasonable adjustments like that are perfectly fine. Words, such as "lovesick," that change the entire meaning or become compound words do not count.
