unless you don't have language barrier with him and you can understand each other I don't know why you tripping out of fifty four countries in Africa today only seventeen are Anglophone let less talk about the world So don't know why this obsession with English that most African Anglophone exhibit funny think English is not even their native language |

I can imagine! Bad can be super-embarrassing. I cringe when i hear people speak confidently sayin 'avoid' instead of 'afford' or 'employ' in place of 'implore' dats y i love pidgin no expression has grammatical fault. |

LMAO! There is not one person on this site that can honestly say that English is their first language. Absolutely NO ONE! Even Akatas speak their own form of pidgin (Ebonics). Since when does speaking proper English account for being the dating or marriage type? Seriously. I don't get why it would be a big fricken deal! SMH. I swear! |

If I enjoy spending time with him then I would be his girlfriend and help him out. Correct him whenever he messes up or tell him to read more. |

What is the point in dating someone you're not proud of? I'm not perfect myself but bad english affects me psychologically, a romantic text message with no punctuation makes me angry. 1 Like |

Of course. Na English I go chop? As long as he can speak pidgin English and tell me things like: "O baby you just scatter me finish"!!!. . .in the bedroom. I can speak enough 'good' English for both of us. Of what use is an 'impotent' man with fine Y-inglish? Tell it not in Gath! |

Mehn! I tried dating an 'angel' during my service year. I couldn't cope with her 'english', I just can't. It was always a mess - each time I took her out, and in the company of my co-corp members. OP, you having that thought. . . don't date him. It counts. |

@ poster. if you really love her, then you will do anything to help her get over the problem Simply give her the education she lacks. even if she absconds later, it will be recorded that you helped one person in this life of yours. QED |

U can date him gurl. Just tell him bout his grammatical errors and i am sure he will change because of u. And some times u r to be d change dat u want to see in someone. Also u sometimes do not get something perfect as u want it, but u can always fine tune dat thing to ur taste gurl. Go by ur instincts and not by wat u told. 1 Like 1 Share |
