ashjay001: I'm back, checked my Webster's Thesaurus and saw idioms under 'learn by heart' and nothing on off head or hand. The only thing I can say is that language evolves and English language is still evolving, new words are added to the lexicon everyday so maybe now saying off head/hand is accepted but when they taught me, those idioms were considered wrong.

ashjay001: That its a new word doesn't mean it just started existing, people say it but it just became acceptable. For the Shakespeare you're quoting, why don't people still use 'tis, twas, thine' etc that is abundant in his works? Because those words are obsolete. English has evolved from 'thine and thee to yours and you,' and it will keep evolving. English did not start with Shakespeare and it won't end with him. The books I read taught me those idioms aren't acceptable (maybe as at when it was written) and I showed you the proof, no be internet gimme the degree na. BTW, teachers are humans beings, whether white or black, they make mistakes which is why I never said my English professor taught me, I showed you one of the books that formed part of my education as my own proof. You can believe it or not. You won't catch me dead saying off hand because that's not what I read and was taught, I'd rather say by heart which is what I told the lady I quoted. Saying 'off head' or 'hand' sounds ungrammatical to me and goes against the grain of what I was taught. I think that's the head and tail of this argument. You said what you think is right and I said mine, we may both be right or wrong but frankly, it doesn't matter. Thank you for an entertaining discussion at least I open textbook after a long while 2 Likes |

"About the economy, we have a very young population, our population is estimated conservatively to be 180 million. This is a very conservative one. More than 60 percent of that population is below 30, a lot of them haven’t been to school and they are claiming that Nigeria is an oil-producing country, therefore, they should sit and do nothing, and Get housing, healthcare, education for free." - President Buhari I'm not sure it translated to mean we were lazy. But it quite myopic of him to say that. We youth are up and doing and we are not depending on oil. But these are basic demands every government should meet for development n growth |

skarlett: Wehdone Ma. I didn't infer anything u said up there! U said, it could be a new word, I gave u instances of how long, it's been around, that's why I referred to Shakespeare n my pry sch education. U were taught by humans n d book u read, was written by humans too. Humans with their error prone ways n their limited knowledge! What ever d colour of their skins! U earlier claimed it was Nigerian English? Then, probably a new word/or just became acceptable. Now, it goes against d grain of what u were taught n since its not in d textbook u use, it couldn't have been acceptable This won't go anywhere, I could already predict d outcome, before delving into it. I rest my case. |

oredav1759: He said the youths are claiming that they should get "housing, healthcare, education for free." First of all, this statement is myopic. I do not know how many of our youth get housing, healthcare, education for free, in this day and age. Secondly, all over the world, you would discover that every country has a population that is made up of the good, the bad and the ugly. Their youth are made up of hardworking, focused and educated groups, as well as the hardworking, and active (though uneducated) ones. Both of them struggle to make a living, going out of their way to offer goods, services, brains, skills and brawn in an honest manner, using fair trade practices to eke out a daily living, in order to put food on their tables and those of their families. Alongside them are deviants who want something for nothing, who are obsessed with getting rich overnight, and have a false sense of entitlement. Thank goodness those in this group, are the minority. They are the touts, area boys, scammers and crooks who form the bulk of criminal gangs, worldwide. They can be found in every state, city, country and ethnic group. In nations with an active, well-equipped police force, their criminality is checked, before it gets out of control. In countries with inefficient security agencies, they infiltrate the security network and become partners in crime, with the agencies expected to bring them to book. The end result is an underground network of criminality, that is insidious and perverts the course of justice. Buhari's crime was that he lumped all these different groups together, and failed to distinguish between the good and the bad. He tarred the good, innocent, hardworking ones with the humiliating brush of insults, for the sins of the lazy few. For this error, he must apologise and make amends. Don't ask me how such ammends would be made. His spin doctors should be able to come up with something interesting, to assuage the souls of the millions of honest youth, whose good name and reputation Buhari dragged in the mud with his words, before the international world.
