							| The right word 
 |  
							| Dear colleagues, I need your help. 
 Some of my students wrote this in their test:
 
 I once did a test on Facebook named "What nationality are you?"
 
 I think the word named cannot be used in this context- I expected the word called.
 Am I right?
 
 Thank you for your answers.

							| You are correct.  To use named is an often- made mistake. |  8 Dec 2010
