Grammar
 
I have the alias:

#ALIAS emote {~emote %-1;#SAY You %-1}

Because I have Command echo turned off and my game does not echo emotes. But depending on what I do it might prduce something like:

emote burns thing!

shows others: Loto burns things!
but shows me: You burns things!

Is there a way to make it change the grammar of it so it would produce

You burn things!

Not easily. English has too many irregular verbs that would require special handling (has/have, is/are, do/does, etc). You're the only one who sees the incorrect grammar anyway, but if you can't stand it change 'You' to 'Loto'.
#AL emote {~emote %-1;#SAY Loto %-1}
