Foxy_Rebirth: I was going through the dictionary to check meaning of words while reading an exciting novel, it later occurred to me, if it is to be Honourable Patrick Obahiagbon that is to teach us simple proverbs and their meaning in school, how is it going to sound like, going by the way he murders vocabulary...

But nothing spoil sha, I was able to come up with these ones and funny enough, it looks really close to what he would say when asked to teach in a class....

Please enjoy, and add yours if you have....

Peace

It's unfortunate that you claim to have coined those phrases but I've read them before, not less than two years ago. And then they were attributed to Pastor Chris Okotie.

You could have at least claimed to have read them somewhere rather than giving the impression of being the author. Too cheap.

THESE ARE THE WORDS OF CHRIS OKOTIE, THE OP SHOULD HAVE GIVEN HIM CREDIT, AT LEAST. WHAT A PATHETIC ATTENTION-SEEKER!

jamace:

Are you sure of that correction?

See below:

Singular present tense: (If Patrick is to be a teacher....) = singular past tense: (If Patrick was to be a teacher....)

Plural present tense: (If they are to be teachers ...) = Plural past tense: (If they were to be teachers)

I feel the OP is right. Otherwise convince/confuse me.

you are both correct.NB:You use 'were' in formal writing.

Lexo22:
Nice concept but I still wish to correct the grammatical error in the title "If partrick were to be an English teach and not was". The last time I made this correction the modulator called me arrogant guy. I still blame the modulator who allowed this wonderful article to cross the front page without correcting the error . No offence!

the op is correct...'were' is used in formal writing

Ok. Thanks.
