My allegiance is to the Republic, to democracy.
I know it's basically become standard usage but misuse of "try and" when "try to" is meant drives me bonkers. "I'll try and swing by." "And" means you're doing both things and will definitely be swinging by. It's the difference between trying and failing and trying to fail.
