    Czisny: FB Post and Hip surgery

    I was on Alissa Czisny's facebook page and she posted this:

    Mistakes rather impressive
    Mortifying-ly repeated instances
    Most really incomprehensible
    Must research into
    Multiple reasons implicated
    Maybe really injured
    Messy results identified
    Must rest immediately
    Media report incoming
    Many rumors initiated
    ... Message responses indefinite
    Mystery remains inevitable

    Three little letters, so many possibilities...

    - Alissa Czisny

    I hope Alissa is okay and it's nothing really serious.

    I don't like her anxiety over the MRI. Stay positive, Alissa.

    Oh, dear...I don't like the implications of that acronym. But what a witty collection of phrases! If Alissa wrote that, she's putting her college degree to very good use.

    Stay strong, Alissa!

    awesome, way to be positive!

    i hope she's alright too and that the MRI if that is what she is getting will turn out fine. but i hope that she figures out what's going on one way or another.

    How thoughtful of you to write the above for her, SkateFiguring.

    I sincerely hope she somehow gets to read your returning message.
    Here is my prayer, too; Alissa will be fine soon and feels better.

    P.S.
    I'm wondering if the usage of 'somehow' is correct, so that the sentense as a whole does not sound any sarcastic or inconsiderate, especially in a case like this when we all feel for Alissa.

    I used to hate writing/reading in English as a student, because grammar and its usage of vocabularies relating to subjunctive mood remained the weakest point during my college days. I was in danger, a couple of times, of failing credits in English literature such as Shakespeare.

    P.S.2
    I hope I would ever have a sense for wording one tenth (1/10) as good as yours, SF. Poetry and such, even in my own language, has never been my strong field whole my life...

    SF, I too hope Alissa sees your supportive (and ingenious) message! It will buoy her up, I'm sure.

    Deedee, your use of somehow in that sentence is just right. It sounds straightforward and sincere, with no hint of sarcasm. Whatever travails you went through in your efforts to learn English are paying off. As you say, in that sentence, it's the adverb somehow that's tricky, not the verb form, and you used the suitable adverb in the right position in the sentence. English is really sloppy with subjunctives because we often don't have a separate form for that mode. I think most native speakers couldn't tell you when they are using the subjunctive. In fact, I didn't really know what the subjunctive was until I started learning French and Latin.

    Sort of a cryptic message. She must have an injury.

    Maybe. If she has something wrong then works on fixing it she might know why she had such a bad skate at Worlds.

    Can't find her Facebook page. I'm on Facebook and I can't find her page.

    I agree.

    Stay strong Alissa!

    The term MRI ( magnetic resonance imaging ) has come into common use over the last 20 or 25 years. It was originally an anaytical tool in organic chemistry. It was originally called NMR ( nuclear magnetic resonance ), but people were afraid of anything with the term "nuclear" in its name.

    Ah, interesting.

    ________________

    As for Czisny- well, cryptic message indeed but if it means what everyone is implying here, well it is really no surprise. Until more is revealed, I'll stay away from speculation but I kinda saw this coming...

    ETA: SF I honestly think you should send that to her. She'd appreciate the effort I think.

    Many thanks to Olympia!, for your quick, accurate and thoughtful reply, as usual, to my grammartical question.

    One of the greatest benefits for me to join this board is I have so many great tutors for my English!
    Whenever I ask something, somebody always is so kind to give me its answers in a swift and smart manner, or rather covertly without making me feel embarrassed.
    And even better for me is I can get them for free!

    Interesting to know that, as Olympia and iluvtodd mentioned, some of you, as native speakers yourselves, did not notice if there was conjunctive mood in English until you started learning other languages.
