Education / Re: Simple English Test! by Udoks(m): 11:11am On Jun 22, 2016 |
1. Both options for #1 are wrong. You don't GIVE but GRANT leave. 2. A) I wish I were the campaign manager of PDP in the last general election. 3. A) [/b]The news of president Buhari's arrival was broadcasted yesterday.[b] 4. B) They appeared to be talking on private matters. 5. B) He fell from the top of the house. 6. B) The subject matter of his discourse was excellent. 7. B) ) If she knew about his financial situation, she would have helped him out. 8. B) Her baby daddy has too many baggage. 9. B) B) Nothing but that would satisfy him. 10. [/b]This would definitely pass as A but the consonant 'H' in the English alphabet is the only consonant that is allowed to carry both the 'A' and the 'AN', just like the vowel 'U' can sometimes carry or tag along with the article 'A'. EG, He has A UNIQUE point of view. [b] I kinda agree with all but the numbers 3 and 10 3. Before, the simple past and past participle of 'broadcast' simply used to be 'broadcast'. But recently, some literature now prefer to use 'broadcasted'. However, the two are still very much acceptable. 10. The H is a consonant that could either be voiced as in 'Hospital' or silent as in 'Hour'. The article of choice between 'a' and 'an' depends on whether the 'H' is voiced or silent. So when voiced we use 'a' = e.g... a hospital, a house, etc. And when silent, we use 'an' = e.g... an hour, an honest man, etc. This however obviously depends on the knowledge of the words with the voiced 'H' and those with the silent 'H'. Some cultures, both in Nigeria and outside have what we call the 'H' factor- in which they put an 'H' where there's not meant to be and remove it from where there's supposed to be. These people might particularly have a problem picking the article to use. NB- I said 'an H' and not 'a H' because H in itself, in the phonemic transcription, does not start with an 'h'. I hope I sha made small sense... Lol H = /'eItʃ/ (I couldn't write the 'ei' diphthong well. Please manage) As for the example used by the person I quoted, 'unique', just like 'university', carries the 'a' article because though 'u' is a vowel, the transcription begins with a consonant 'j'. So it's only appropriate to say 'a unique idea from a university's staff union' I am not an English professor, I am just a mere Doctor with interest in languages. Thank you. 1 Like |

Health / Re: Amina Suffers Stevens-Johnson Syndrome In Katsina After Taking Septrin (Graphic) by Udoks(m): 7:04pm On Jun 01, 2016 |
FYI This is not anything specific to 'Septrin' lest some people start feigning allergies to the the drug, or speak ill/less of it's therapeutic effects. This is a hypersensitivity reaction to a group of drugs called 'Sulfonamides'. There are a lot of drugs under this group. The common ones in our environment are Septrin (which is a combination of trimethoprim and sulfamethoxazole), Fansidar (Sulfadoxine and Pyrimethamine), and some anti-diabetic drugs. Note that they all have 'sulfa' Approximately 3% of the population have this hypersensitivity as a result of their body makeup. So it's not the same for the most part of any given population. Just a special few are are likely to be affected. Therefore it's not a reason enough to stop the use of a particular drug. However, it is always advocated that people should shy away from self-medicating as any doctor prescribing any drug to you, especially drugs such as the sulfa-drugs, would know better to ask you for any history of allergies to a particular drug before prescribing. Also the administration of drugs with higher chances of lethal side effects would be more closely monitored and promptly treated in the case of manifestations. Bottom line, KNOW YOURSELF and medicate wisely (through a doctor). Peace.. . 1 Like |

I was even expecting to see a lady wearing G-strings and swimming tops. She could sue the photographer for this. She is an adult and is responsible for whatever she does with herself. Plus, this isn't all that revealing. However, I think it's the guy at the door that let her in that should be castigated and not her (If really she was). |
Romance / Re: Benefits Of Dating/marrying A Beautiful Woman.......... by Udoks(m): 6:56pm On Jan 23, 2016 |
So who will marry the 'ugly' ones? IMO, I really do not think there is anyone that's really ugly. Some people are just products of wrong parental matching... Lol. Let's always mix Up and promote a new breed. Not an entire generation will be ugly and another lineage will be beautiful. TOGETHER WE CAN ERADICATE THE MENACE CALLED UGLINESS. LOL... jokes apart... Beauty really is in the eyes of the beholder. That's why the ones who might be termed 'complete hole' still get good and handsome men to marry while the so called 'complete whole' still wait till $1=1 Naira before they get a man who is not just after using them to show off their achievements. But wait, why does no one talk about ugly men? Na them dey even wan get the so-called beautiful women pass. Must the women always be the ones to be beautiful? 2 Likes |

Travel / Re: Train Crushes 3 Persons In Ilorin (photo) by Udoks(m): 10:41am On Dec 21, 2015 |
So the train was afar off and the driver did not see that there was a car on the rail line? Did the train not have a horn? (my house is quite far from any railway, and I hear the sound as though the railway were just behind my house). No matter how rolled up the glasses were, some sound could still seep through. Ok the people were shouting, even when the train was yet afar, and no one could run to the car to tell the occupants of the car to move? Or stone the car (for lo, better would have been a dented car or even a smashed windshield than the loss of souls) And finally, is it a crime for the train to stop when it's not gotten to the station or did this train just not have a brake system? On a last note, I think these folks were just destined to die as foolishly as this. God bless their souls sha. This story is just daunting... I just don't gerrit |
