I ADMIRE The Namibian immensely and have great respect for its reporters.

For this reason, I usually just have a chuckle or give a twitch of irritation when I read some of the strange things that happen to the English language in its pages. But doesn’t this sentence from the back page of the Tuesday 20th April sound more than a little strange? ‘Shileka took out his opponent in round six, prior to knocking him down twice in the fifth round.’ Is that physically possible?
