	   |  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...  Quote:   |

 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"

 Ezekiel 25:17. The path of the righteous man is beset on all sides by the inequities of the selfish and the tyranny of evil men. Blessed is he who, in the name of charity and good will, shepherds the weak through the valley of the darkness. For he is truly his brother's keeper and the finder of lost children. And I will strike down upon thee with great vengeance and furious anger those who attempt to poison and destroy my brothers. And you will know I am the Lord when I lay my vengeance upon you.
