THIS IS ACTUALLY COPYPASTA of a Prior post I made on Tinychan (now bookmarked)One I am Dyslexic and larning English was most difficult. Actually UCLA n USC was easier on me then all before. Except one engineering class (Civil) MIT was all Math so Inglish were never an issue there.
I as Engineer love Math and Physics spot on accuracy. With English accuracy is irrelevant. Everyone has a different version of whats ok n whats not. + Text speek now makes so many text speek similar to my crappy English.
You do know Shakespeare in his tyme was criticized for inventing brand new words (Over 1500 brand new words) [Most still in daily use] and Shakespeare waz terrifik @breaking the rules of Arngulish. Add to that this:
The Rules of Grammar
"I am almost sure by witness of my ear, but cannot be positive, for I know grammar by ear only, not by note, not by the rules. A generation ago I knew the rules
"Great books are weighed and measured by their style and matter, and not the trimmings and shadings of their grammar."
"The Queen's English"
"There is no such thing as the Queen's English. The property has gone into the hands of a joint stock company and we own the bulk of the shares."
"SPELLING"
"I don't see any use in having a uniform and arbitrary way of spelling words. We might as well make all clothes alike and cook all dishes alike. Sameness is tiresome; variety is pleasing. I have a correspondent whose letters are always a refreshment to me, there is such a breezy unfettered originality about his orthography. He always spells Kow with a large K. Now that is just as good as to spell it with a small one. It is better. It gives the imagination a broader field, a wider scope. It suggests to the mind a grand, vague, impressive new kind of a cow."
"I have had an aversion to good spelling for sixty years and more, merely for the reason that when I was a boy there was not a thing I could do creditably except spell according to the book. It was a poor and mean distinction and I early learned to disenjoy it. I suppose that this is because the ability to spell correctly is a talent, not an acquirement. There is some dignity about an acquirement, because it is a product of your own labor. It is wages earned, whereas to be able to do a thing merely by the grace of God and not by your own effort transfers the distinction to our heavenly home---where possibly it is a matter of pride and satisfaction but it leaves you naked and bankrupt."
"I never had any large respect for good spelling. That is my feeling yet. Before the spelling-book came with its arbitrary forms, men unconsciously revealed shades of their characters and also added enlightening shades of expression to what they wrote by their spelling, and so it is possible that the spelling-book has been a doubtful benevolence to us."
"...ours is a mongrel language which started with a child's vocabulary of three hundred words, and now consists of two hundred and twenty-five thousand; the whole lot, with the exception of the original and legitimate three hundred, borrowed, stolen, smouched from every unwatched language under the sun, the spelling of each individual word of the lot locating the source of the theft and preserving the memory of the revered crime."
AND If anyone has problems with my images - Shocking Yes I fooly No - This forum is an Image 4um so Images R Yet if it makes anyone happy to gripe about just keep on griping as well who gives a fuk if u do or don't whine.
