Use of English....
 
You can call me cranky in Canada if you like but I am wondering if the improper use of English in this forum bothers you? The one example that bothers me most is "learn me about...."

Does this grate on you as well or is this just me?:eek::eek: Is this misuse of English acceptable or not?

You'r crazy. Mind you're own biznass, you crazy canuck!

I can't stand the interjection of the word Aye,, into a sentence while the person speaking let's his brain thaw and thinks of the next thing he wants to say:D:D
You know what I mean ? Aye...

Well we are having fun with this topic. Actually the correct spelling is "eh" here. However you did get your point across. I think that with the eh/aye use it does get the other person involved in the conversation so as to avoid egocentric behavior eh?

The literacy level on this forum is not the best. If I had a buck for every time someone typed "breaks" or "bumber..."

craigster59 01-14-2013 07:59 AM

I always thought it was supposed to be "Edumakate me on...."

I'd take a quarter for every "choich" and end up with more money...

Do keyboards in Canada not come with a comma key?

Amail 01-14-2013 08:14 AM

The older you are, the more stuff bothers you.

mikesride 01-14-2013 09:10 AM

I am horrible at spelling, I use the spell check feature more than the average guy!

Really? If spelling on a Internet form is your biggest problem in life you are a very lucky man indeed!
