[Warning! the following post might render you mindless and possible multiple murder attempts on writer... if not on innocent public]
My inggerish, is not perfect. it can at times, much turvy-topsy-tipsy. but strangely enough, one of my petpeevish are wrong grammar usage and my top obsesion when i am not sure of sumthing, like spelling, i imediately check the dictionary and thicksaurus weather online or my ever relyable oxford 'ever-present-pyhsical' edition.
On the last friday, i was surfing the internet while Lingling chat-chat to me on msn.
I than spooted this phrase:
Lingling was saying something else but all i can think about were that phrase. So i ended up giving lecture to Lingling about the mistakens make (even when it not his fault at all!), did corrections to the phrase and ask Lingling to tell the owner of the site to correct that glaring mistakens of his! needless to said, my confident in his business went down. And that was for mat saleh client lagi. Where to put face?
And then, i were surfing summore, found this:
Among the mistakens was, the use of "Excuse". Hokey, what with Malaysian with this word?
At least the second one had "Please" before they excuse, and their compress has "ed". But i have major problem with that "Excuse". Please excuse my sudden lapse to proper English but i can't stand it much longer! why couldn't they just use "We apologize" instead? is it not more suitable for formal usage? Excuse me for pointing this out and i do apologize for this in advance, but to those that uses "Excuse, excuse" whenever they need to make way for themselves instead of the proper "Excuse me", why is it so hard to add the ME! Ignorance or doing monkey hear, monkey repeat is not an excuse. Laziness to say "me" after "excuse", is inexcusable.
But most importantly, furthermore, henceforth and so on, if you want to cut plus paste then edit, please make sure to edit it correctly.
Hokey, brain go kaput! after anger-anger.
I think the sama day or day before, we read a very failed form 2 inggerish compostion. she wrote inggerish-melayu-inggerish-melayu. actually like is how i wrote here, but betul, tak tipu and morest worsen. her teacher commented was simple, "English Please!". Our commented was even simplest "Lawak HAHAHA". We means because we thinks our inggerish top-top! We ahso perasan we pandai.
(We obviously nope. Ps: smile always! bye!)
By the jalan ah LingLing, its "Sapphire", not "Saphire". I said i KNEW it "Sapphire" coz "Saphire" looks weird once writen, and i know it had sillent 'P'. You iPhone dictionary takleh harap! nyeeett. Mahal = no guranminumtea jalan.
[Trust me, i was trying very hard not to knock myself on the head while attempting to be grammaticality incorrect as much as possible and intentionally misspelling anything i can while making things readable. And if i happened to misspelled something UNintentionally, even the better for this posting *GRIN* Hope it annoyed you guys as much as i annoyed myself]
