: The English 101 Thread

thanks to 89blkcivic's idea I've started this threat... i meant thread to discuss about modern/internet people and their use of English and what is wrong with it...

Instead of mocking it, why don't we start an Englsih 001 thread?

It's not just for FOB and ESL people, but EFL (English as a First Language, but still can't get it right) people on RS could find the info useful, too.

We can start with shit like.......

Effect vs Affect

Effect = Zhang Fei's good looks have an awesome effect on women.
Affect = How does Zhang Fei's charm affect older women?

Then vs Than

Then = BNR32 insulted CRS, then he got banned.
Than = BNR32 would rather be banned for life than become good friends with CRS.

See? You make things relevant and people will understand.......... not.

I really shouldn't make fun of ESL students/people. I was, afterall, an ESL student myself.




I also want to discuss the use of "shut the fuck up" <-- I mean what is that?

Shut Up is the meaning to tell somebody to shut their bottom jaw up in a sense to not talk... so if shut up is short for that... what is shut the fuck up?

- shut the fuck jaw up?
- shut the jaw fuck up?
- shut jaw the fuck up?


I don't know... you guys talk about it... or like 63.5% of the post on RS... flame the OP

"the fuck" has been inserted into "shut up" simply for emphasis.

Another example:

"What the fuck are you doing" vs "What are you doing"

張繼 楓橋夜泊

月落烏啼霜滿天
江楓漁火對愁眠
姑蘇城外寒山寺
夜半鐘聲到客船


Zhang Ji A NIGHT-MOORING NEAR MAPLE BRIDGE


While I watch the moon go down, a crow caws through the frost;
Under the shadows of maple-trees a fisherman moves with his torch;
And I hear, from beyond Suzhou, from the temple on Cold Mountain,
Ringing for me, here in my boat, the midnight bell.

i'm SO boring; when they mean to say they are bored.

"I'M SO BORING RIGHT NOW" - them
"yes, yes you are." - me
