Op,i know you typed this for 30 minutes and checked your dictionary about 16 times for you not to be criticized,its obvious cos your English is not as polished as you presented this,at least you should have some lil typos and abbreviations etc,but this seems carefully planned and typed,and it shows you're a raw yoruba girl that speaks bad grammar and that's why eloquence seems to freak you,you respect and attach more importance to what you don't haveĀ

I think you need to work better on your contsruction. Too many comas(,) and you should know when to use fullstop(.) undecided

I've noticed some people are better at spoken english than at written english. Some are better at written english than at spoken english. While others can maintain the balance. When I meet strangers for the first time, I might stutter and mix up my words, but after getting used to the person I flow easily.

Lets face it.. No one is perfect and there is nada wrong in dating or marrying someone with bad command of English as long as the person is willing to improve.

Despite my excellent prowess in oratory as well as written mode of communicating in English, i still make crazy blunders that baffles even me.

Lets understand that English is and will remain a burrowed language hence never to be made a criterion for loving someone.

Yea!

It's very difficult to read her post most times. I just manage.

She and a host of other NL girls. Some girls use short hand to ease the stress of typing not bothering if the reader can understand what they have typed. undecided

Thought I was the only one who finds it hard to grasp what she writes. I'm not alone on it after all. Shorthand writing is my biggest turn off mehn.

You cannot speak English. You cannot even make one error free sentence, to save your own life.

So, who is going to date you? You think you're pretty and that will cover up your grammatical flatulence?

Personally, good use of grammars and spellings turns me on

Though protocols can be bypassed when it comes to 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..

To each his own opinion

This is what I am talking about bro.

You don't see all this asian countries,speaking english.
Yet they are master's in what they do.
Look at india,it was colonized by Great britian.
Yet it didn't adopt english and it is even competing,with her former colony.

In terms of space exploration,military,I.C.T,politics,medicin etc.

Same has china,which has the largest GDP in the world,even US no near them and they still lead in industrialization,military strengnt.

I nove talk about eastern europe(russia,ukrain etc)

But what do we have to say about africa!

We rejected our own and adopted another mans language,culture which gave room for white supremacy.

Yet we don't see anything wrong with that.
they dictate our affaires and issue order to african soveriegn states like their puppets.

We still see nothing wrong with that,instead we see anything from the west as swag and our's as local and a turn off.

That is height of mental slavery..JESUS.angry


UNTIL WE EMANCIPATE OUR'SELFS FROM MENTAL SLAVERY,AFRICA IS GOING NOWHERE


Blackett I see your hand work cool

Cc appleyard I need you here
[/b][/size]

Truth is Africa is still under slavery, we just don't know it or we know but chosen to ignore it.

Most advance nations of today were at one time or the other under colonial rules. But you know what; they are, what they are today because they make a clean break from their colonial masters and stand up to them.

We black need to totally free ourselve from everything related to our colonial past. We need to creat our own identity, our own modern heritage.

Our language and culture should be the pivots and templates to base our future prosperity, developmental, technological, social outlook as a race.
