I find it really difficult to read things that aren't written in proper grammar. And it's hard even to process things that are written in excessive third-person point of view.

Yeah, I guess so. But I always thought that English was English, and there was a 'right' way to speak it and a 'wrong' way to speak it.

But that's what I get for being a foreigner, I guess.

Well yes, when studying a foreign language you should just talk without worrying about making mistakes--that way you can practice and -be- corrected if you /do/ make a mistake. But there's still a wrong way to speak and a right way to speak. Otherwise, what would the point of having a class for it be--just talk and you get an A, right? No. You make mistakes, you get your grade marked down.

Also, this is English. Not Japanese. Nor is it funny for you to imply that I'm old. I'm about the same age as you, and I still think that it's important to speak properly. After all, if we didn't have a manner of standardisation to the language, it wouldn't be a language and we wouldn't be able to understand each other. Some mistakes can -entirely- change what you're trying to say.

You don't believe in a fact? Facts aren't a matter of 'feelings'. If you refused to believe that the world was round, that wouldn't make the earth flat. It would make you a fool. Same concept.

but there are so many ways that people talk in english, what makes which one proper English as a fact? slang, hillbilly talk, trucker talk, third person, first person, or English from england english?

Sora doesn't believe talking is fact....it's just how people talk....

Regardless, let's not let this get too heated. I don't think Kent or Hadsvich would be pleased to see anything get out of hand. Not that I think you guys would fight or anything.

English is taught in school for a reason. That is 'proper', that is the standard, and that is the way it is meant to be spoken. All the rest is doing it wrong, and doing it wrong intentionally is like putting your clothes on inside out and then getting surprised when people laugh at you.

I don't want to start drama in here, though, and I definitely don't want Hadsvich mad at me, so here's a helpful link, maybe you can start learning? English grammar - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Sense, please don't be rude. :C Who knows, Sora might speak perfectly.
I'm sure he knows what proper grammar is.

Anywho, dinner was okay~ I wish the chicken was softer though. ; 3;

I'm certainly not trying to be rude, and I'm definitely not trying to argue. I just don't understand how someone can 'feel differently' about a fact. What if I 'felt' that this site was named Yumeh-Land?

That and it makes my eyes and brain hurt to try and read bad grammar and chatspeak. That's why I play on Menewsha instead of other places, but if this is going the way of Gaia I guess I ought to find a different site to hang out on.

...This...is why I prefer for people to use proper grammar. I quite honestly have no idea what you were trying to say there, Sora.

I believe that Sora was apologizing for his typing being the way it is.

@Sense - Everyone has their own opinions, and it would be nice if they were respected, even if they were wrong. I'd be okay with it if you 'felt' this site was Yumeh-Land. X3 Facts aren't always believed, after all.

And I agree it's a little difficult to read, but everyone has the right to write however they want. X3
So, I can get used to it.

@Sora - It's fine, Sora~ X3 Don't worry about it. <3

@Liztress - Oh? What did you have for dinner? O:

Ah. I...really can't understand that sentence. But it's all right. ^^; I mean it's not like he's been trying to rile anyone. Except for when he started saying very rude things about me, but meh. I'm not too bothered about that, and if the worst he can do is call me 'old', then I guess I'm all right.
