Bad grammar and bad spelling

Recommended Posts

Only a woman will put the time and effort into thinking about this little stuff. smile.gif

 

OK,So they cant spell and or write grammatically correct english?

 

You guys need to consider that most of these Faraxs learnt English about 10-12 years ago at some "old age". Unlike you younglings who were say,10years old and under. They need to be commended not condemned. Remember, Most schools in Somalia never taught English.

 

This is nonsense(with all due respect@ Serenity),actually,it is more of a pet peeve than a dispair,me thinks smile.gif

 

*Excuse me while i go write some poor english* smile.gif

Hope you have donned a BULLET PROOF vest, cause lotsa guys are gonna shoot you over this one, dear Serenity. Don't be such a snob innit :D .

 

Well, although far from perfect myself, as a Somali Qaxooti I try my best and I care. Some of the messages I read are sometimes just impossible to comprehend as it is so poorly written. Some people are so clueless when it comes to grammar that it makes their whole post impossible to understand. I usually don't judge them, but then again, I usually don't read them either [unless they rub it in my face].

My Iranian Co-worker is of Bahai faith.They are cool people with all their progressive revelation :D

 

For a minute too I thought you guys were talking about American Southern drawl.One of my mentor grew up in Xamaar. She is a sweet little thing with her southern accent.A Sijui of all people shouldn't be talking about people's accent. :D
