It's right and proper, both. We laugh a lot on the RAE, as they're the ones cheapening the proper grammar.
BTW, regarding the nick, I've just finished "Cryptonomicon", right on the subject.
I bet Google Translator is good enough.
23 pages on a subject as CAS is fairly little. Notice I didn't wrote anything on FO training and the lot, which is a subject as important as the platform, is not more.

By default, the F keys work as shortkeys for some "hard" functions, like sound volume, or screen bright. Them can be configured to enable other OS functions, like Workspaces or Dashboard also.
In System Preferences, go to Keyboard. There, mark box Use all F1, F2, etc. keys as standard function keys and try again. I suppose it will make it work.
