An apology for my use of the English language
I can't believe ya'll read this blog! Oh goodness, I just hope none of you are English majors! HA! No, all of them have probably left. Although, I'm sure if you are an English major and you are still reading this blog, you are getting some good laughs!
I just re-read a recent post and, have mercy, there were words left out, imcomplete sentences, and just plain old bad grammer! In some of my posts comma's just seem to place themselves wherever they darn well please. Honestly, I think there are even some run-on sentences and who really know how to use a semi-colon in the first place!
Oh my English teachers would be so ashamed. I even made A's in class. I think, anyway.
Well, so much for remembering the rules. Please consider this my formal apology for the incorrect grammer, terrible usage of commas, sentence structure, and the ever so often ending of my sentences with prepositions . Should you wish to correct, please by all means, email me! Maybe I should sit in on a few of Ben's language classes.
Did you know, it takes a full seven years for someone to become fluent in English if it is their second language? Seven. Let's bring that into perspective, Ben will be twenty in seven years. WHAT!?!?
For every rule in our lovely language, there is an exception. (maybe I can make up my own exceptions to the rules!)
It's the hardest language on the planet.
I once heard a lady, who lived and taught in Africa for 20 years, say that she would rather teach the African language than she would the English language!
Good grief!
Maybe we should go back to speaking Greek and Latin.
