A hideous grammatical mangle spotted by Des Pond of Slough:
Link: The Telegraph, ‘Hunter Treschl speaks about the moment a shark bit off his arm’ |
The news item comes from the USA, and thus the writer may well be American, but Merriam-Webster confirms in the following example that the past participle should be bitten, as in UK-English: ‘The patient had been bitten by a poisonous snake.’
arm bit off
