I don't fall for any of those.

What irks me most is when graduates confuse been with being.

An example is when someone writes, i have being searching for you or

Where have you being?

English sha.....

The key to its mastery is read....read....read

Also listen to good presenters on radio and television

The most misplaced/wrongly spelt word in nigeria is probably using am in place of i'm!
So times some get to write i'm i.... which translates to I am I

Nice thread op
