well... school teaches us, internet unteaches us !

i used to speak without error, write without error and then internet came in my life and now i make grammar error in almost each sentences i make !

tho i always had trouble with my english grammar but damn, i also have problem with my french and it is my primary language !

but i know what you mean, but you can't say that it is the government fault on it kid. each student has their own knowledge and have their own right to know or not if they want to learn or not !

some, including me, just aren't able to learn it, no matter how hard i tryed to learn it, it just couldn't get in, i just couldn't understand why it was writen that way instead of the other ! so you can't just blame it on the government since they have done a lot already !

at least here in canada !

Eh, the reason kids nowadays write messed up is because. Most kids think they have better things to do than to listen to whatever the teach has to say. Some kids go to school, but don't learn anything because their mind is somewhere else. Other times kids might be very good in school, but then when they come home they forget everything because of the way families talk at home. So, usually all the things they learned at school is just remembered for the few hours at school then forgotten when they get home. So, it's like they have to refresh their memory before they come home.

I don't really blame the goverment on how teens are learning. I blame the student, because the mind will learn whatever the body will let it. Let's take KARMA for example. He says that he can never learn how to have correct grammer. But his mind once did it, but he claims the internet undid it. So if your mind could once do it once before then what is stopping him from relearning. HE IS, because the more you put yourself down the more you will believe it. So the more you build yourselfup then the more you will believe it.

I dunno..I live in canada..well the good part. And at school during the english(language arts) class they still try to teach us proper grammar and sentence structure. During that class we had to write about 5 essays and about half of the marks went towards punctuation, structure, grammar, and capitalization.
But I do think we all tend to slip on the computer..because typing is different from writing..so in typing we are either lazy or try to take the short way out and abbreviate. So, over the computer all the slang and stuff like that is fine to me, but that should be where it stays because taking the easy way wont help you in life.

akuma_forever · 04-16-2004, 01:53 PM

That's the way most people talk in notes... and chat online. I guess they are just too lazy to spell things out...

Razz · 04-16-2004, 03:23 PM

Oh, the irony. You're ranting about a lack of grammar, yet there are so much grammar errors in your post ... (sigh)
But then again, you're not too bad. At least you use commas and end stops.

azncat · 04-16-2004, 03:43 PM
