Ok, the truth is I ONCE FOUND myself in the situation sometimes ago!
But I dealt with it.

So, now, can we discuss?

How did you deal with it so that we can articulate that as a possible solution to your hypothetical situation?LOL

Na dt kain public own dey pain pass
Mine used to have to give speeches too nd i'll even take my tym to write it down and type it for him, na so he go just get der dey talk d tin from his head dey scatter floor

I have a friend like that o,and while doing my masters in Leicester I also met some African guy like that. Funnily,they are most loud when around people. Maybe you have some visiting girlfriends or some school mates that respect you,na there the grammar go begin o. Normally I just get cold.

Both men and women of such strength(yes na,they sabi speak pass us na) find it difficult to accept corrections easily.

I think for a man,in those post-intimate moments just draw his attention to it. He may not like it but still be clear and loving in doing that.

Also,you can get them to watch CNN and Fox news with you while you nudgingly guide them to errors using little stories of friends. Share articles with them from Naija newspapers-Thisday and Leadership,even Premium Times,have fine columnists. From reading his expression quality grows.

Again,you can always ask him if a particular spoken English of yours is correct every now and then,in that way you build a culture of corrections that makes it easy for you to correct him.

Good luck!

You ran from a treasure that you could have nurtured? What did you do?
