U have ur kind of virtues u look out for in women..I have mine and as sure as hell, a poor command of English is not a virtue..u know that too even if u don't want to accept it, its a huge turn off
quite pathetic,this is why our local dialect is dwindling day by day because this contemporary age don't care in developing and sustaining it,,,so a stranger wooing you with your dialect is a turn off?what if he feign not knowing how to speak good english?...you must be an igbo girl,it's prevalent here

Its very obvious you find it difficult to understand..yea I'm an Igbo girl and I'm verrrrry proud of my language..but we all know that our official language here in Nigeria is English language,before u start toasting a girl and you don't knw where she comes from,don't u use English? Its that first impression that I'm talking abt here. personally I need to know that u re good with English before speaking my native language with u

Grammar, not grammars.

Coming from someone who cannot date a lady who is structurally and constructively deficient in writing.

"Grammars" indeed.
I thought you had given up a long time ago up trying to seek my attention since the beginning of this year

Go check your dictionary.. Fool !!!

Kindly point to where I said I cannot date a lady who is structurally and constructively deficient

This is not a lame to get my attention you inconsequential goat

Quote me and I won't reply you

You're becoming more impressive atleast. You've been gradually spelling words in full rather than the shorthand writing. You know, to most men who are fluent with the Anglo Lingua shorthand form of writing is a turn off. It shows unseriousness. Just saying.

Relax and stop showing off, OK...you might be good with spelling in full, I don't do that especially when I've got a lot to type..I just hope you are good with spoken English as well

Showing off? That's a new one. Humour me more.

Like I said typing in shorthand sketches a person as unserious, especially to someone who's attracted to one who has a good command of English Language. And you know it.

...Alright buh for the fact that english folks colonizes us doesn't mean we'll promoting theirs to the detriment of ours.i know it'll interest you to know that if you goto countries like singapore,hongkong even india that're also colonized by britain they don't even imbibe the language in their national affairs(as their lingua franca) and they'r more enlightened and developed than us

so in a nutshell,one not knowing how to speak english doesn't make him an illitrate

You're a dumb dyslexic "grammars" speaking nincompoop, with the IQ of a stone, and an over bloated sense of self importance.

Eat your humble pie and shut the fvck up. Amnesic thing. Who made this comment below?

tosyne2much:
Personally, good use of grammars and spellings turns me on

Though protocols can be bypassed when it comes a loving someone so It's very difficult to rush into judgement saying I can't date a lady who is structurally and constructively poor when it comes to speaking or writing..

*Lemme hear from Ronald4lif *cheesy
cool

Discombobulated animal. . . Don't reply me, cocksmoking idiott - you have nothing worthwhile to say. Fvcking _retard.

There are still literates that find it hard to speak correctly and you know what that means..unlike when when you are illiterate and still speak correctly.your illteracy might even be questioned, in a nut shell,I wasn't talking abt literacy or illiteracy, I was talking abt good use of english
