this annoys me so badily!!!

im not saying my grammer is always correct. but...

actually, two things that annoy me.

the first one, is when people say things like "i was the poorest...blah blah blah". it's ridiculous... it's MOST POOR. i feel like yelling "repeat it with me, MOOOOST POOR". [or, insert various other words in the place of poorest]

the second is when people mix up grammer and spelling and say "oh, you misspelled that word- your grammer is horrible". hello?

 

You spelt badly wrong...what terrible grammar of you Trish!

I hate it when people say "borrowed". I "borrowed" it out to someone. No, you "lent" it out to someone.

 

both of you should stop being so fucking picky

 

hehe, we're not picky. we just know what we're talking about.

 

ok i admit it, i have bad grammar and spelling.............​

​

​

i dont even know what a adverb is..............................​

 

It's funny how someone so picky about grammer could use such horrible punctuation.

 

i just can't bring myself to spend time caring about how people write anything.

 

well that's the thing fitzy... i dont so much mind how people write. i mind it when i hear speech. i know, im weird and anal in that way.

 

I doubt thats the only way you're anal. Your husband couldn't have put up with you this long otherwise. I wonder, am I still on your ignore list?

 

well, i also don't care how people talk in a environment that is pretty much a chill environment. but in a business/professional environment, you can't talk like you would in a chill environment. but then there are always times when its mixed up. i know i talked to some of my teachers in h.s. and prof. in college like i was talking with my friends just chilling.


i guess what i am trying to get to is, its a matter of who your with at the time and the comfortability of the people your with. hope this makes sense.

 

That makes perfect sense fitzy. I dig what you're saying.

Makes sense though, isn't everything relative to the environment that you are in at the time?

 

i don't really care about any of that as long i understand what the person's trying to say. except for one thing. i hate when people type "loose" instead of "lose."

 

and what's wrong with the word "poorest?"

 

I don't know those things either actually, although I do have good grammar. It all comes from reading a lot I guess.

But it's annoying, especially now that I'm learning french. They are always talking about using this preposition before this adverb... blah blah blah. I never know what they are talking about.

 

French is a terrible language to learn. I'm so so so glad I was in Immersion. It comes second nature to me almost, but I feel real sorry for people that never grew up with it.

 

I guess it must be terrible, because I got a D in the class

It is really hard though. Although most of my trouble in it is because I can't understand it when someone else speaks it. I have a good vocabulary and I can speak it reasonable well (but not great) but I can't understand a word of what anyone else says when they speak french. So many of the damn words sound exactly the same as all the other words!

 

i took french for 3 years in high school. i couldn't speak it then, and i can't speak it now. i really wish i could have learned a language starting in elementary schools. would have been more beneficial for my future and others.

 

I was at a disadvantage in my class because everyone else in it had taken french either in elementary school or high school. But it wasn't an option for me to do that. But I am determined to do it. I am tired of only being able to speak English. And I've been noticing that park rangers who can speak french are in high demand.

But they should really really start teaching this stuff in elementary school. It would be so much easier then.

 

Actually, in the statement of mine that you quoted, there was nothing wrong with my punctuation.

 

It was a compoune sentence there shouldn't have been a period, but instead a comma.
