Don't wake a Tiger until you've factored the teeth




Just saw one of the threads where the erudite gentleman had written

"electric 1s r fast... but nitro's r ma favourite & currently workin' on

"dont dey give glow

"thnx dhinesh... i lyked dat car

"i wud lyk to electric

and to top it off:

"dats da rule... but thnx 4 da reply


Wow! There's a theory (actually more of a theorem now) that you can write a sentence without vowels, and it would still be readable and make sense.

Anyway, "thnx for da payshunsh in read dis"   Grin ROFL ROFL ROFL

HEHEHE...... Well, its true. I had read about this somewhere where it says that there has been a survey done with thousands of people and at the end it was confirmed that our human brains are so fast that while reading something we do regularly, even though the letters in a words are interchanged making sure that the first and last letter are placed correctly, while reading the brain actually ignore the correct spelling and interprets the word by reading the first and last character.

The most shocking thing is that it is said a normal human uses just 2-3% of what a human brain can do.

People who were able to use about 4 and max 5% are people like Einstein.

We cannot even in the wildest of our dream also think what can be done if we could use 50% or full 100% of our brain power.

Maybe we could vanish or tele-port or what not.

LOL!

They do teach grammar and spelling in school although most kids are "too cool for it".

If you thought that was bad, take a look at FB profiles of teenagers. As a 17 y/o, I have many friends in the same age group and most of them type like that. I use FB to keep in touch with RC related activities. My news feed was clogged with so much junk from those people that I had to "un-friend" most of them. Boy am I happy I did it.

It pains me, so see such rubbish, and I remember all the Knuckle Raps by Miss Aloisias (My Grammar teacher). There aren't anymore dedicated grammar classes that i see in my Son/daughter's timetable and i distinctly remember of having 5-7 grammar classes a week (in, today's lingo, we all used to literally s**t in our pants when she walked in).

This thread is turning out to be interesting.....

But seriously, it took me quite a while to actually understand what did "payshunsh" mean and had to read this work a couple of times and try to pronounce it and then finally because of my "PATIENCE" to understand the work, I came to know it was "PATIENCE".

Information sharing improves knowledge of both.



Who said this ?
I have learned ABCD in Class 6 officially as per syllabus of West Bengal board of Secondary Education. Then what can you expect from me. Thank god that I have learn some English at home.
I have also opened Facebook account just to block my name, nothing else.

And some of my friends are still learning to minimize post in Facebook and how to avoid grammer Grin
Among them, one have only one year service remaining and still good in drafting. Who cares about the future ?

I have been warning people once, and then deleting their posts/threads when it gets to be too much.  I urge other mods to do the same.  We are not in the guessing business, and if one does not spend a few seconds extra typing out proper words, I am not sure this forum is for them.  After all, they are not writing essays here... it is a few sentences a day, which means literally only a few seconds extra is needed to do it right. 

Facebook friends and people who read their SMSes may have such patience, we don't.

I tend to empathize with both camps - it pains me to see
what passes as English these days  .... But...

on the other hand having a teenage son on the premises
I think that this is their way of rebelling ... being different
from their elders. Not that they couldn't communicate in proper
English if they wanted to.

I am just thankful that their rebelling takes this relatively
harmless form and not drugs or violence.  Overall its nothing
to lose sleep about.

Saikat da!
While I tend to think similar, I have seen for want of proper communication people have landed themselves in embarrassing situation and sometimes important items have  landed at a place they weren't intend to, communication is only complete, especially a broadcast communication like these, if the whole population understands it, else it is garbage.

Wow! This is now getting warm! Anwar, I only meant it as a general comment; kids will be kids, and times, as Dylan said, are a'changing.

That said, the primary function of language is communication, and this is a serious forum, for "masti" you do have FB. Therefore, a certain discipline and decorum, without being Draconian about it, is certainly not amiss.

Thanks all, and I hope this discussion does continue, makes a little change in the Angle of Attack at full revs!  Grin

Anwar's post seems to be the only option left with the mods. Any other suggestions - out of the box perhaps?
Maybe a "warning" in the dialog box used to type/create posts?

I like SMS language. Its short and easy to type, however i do not use it on online forums.
I have nothing against SMS lingo, but users posting on a platform used by a large group ought to spend some time making their posts understandable.

My point is not about grammer, it is against SMS language.  People have varying levels of grammer skills, that is understood.  They are related though, use of SMS lingo causes grammer to deteriorate.

As a matter of policy, it is SMS language that we don't want to see here.  Mistakes in grammer are much less of a concern.

Use of SMS language is totally about people being LAZY... nothing more, nothing less.

+1. Not everyone can converse/express themselves in English fluently due to several reasons and it should not be held against them.

Not being able to spare time to type complete words yet expecting everyone to jump out and help is what i would like to see a change in.

Yo Ol Dudes! We nid to thrash dis issue once n 4 all. R we ready 2 accept dis new lingo on da forum? If not, lets b clear abt dat in no uncertain terms. Da new kids bring in new ideas and points f view. We ol fogeys have to adjust n appreciate. While we argue abt da English language, dey (da younglings wid bad grammar) fly rings around us on d field. Dey r like a breath f fresh air. Sumtimes 2 brash n 2 bold - I admit. Thumbs Down

+ 1 to the 'younglings". Hats Off

P.S. I advocate the use of 'correct' English as a language in my professional capabilities but I'm learning from the younglings about flying and RC.

P.P.S As I may have said before, this is not an English Language forum.

My apologies to the gentry that I may offend with this post..... Giggle

Point to ponder : In all other similar International Forums, sms / text/truncated English language is not used or accepted. Just F.Y.I.

Its rightly as mentioned by Anwar, its not the grammar that anyone is against its "the intentional exclusion of the Same is the Shame" somebody who cant speak english too well may have grammatical mistakes in a post... my suggestion is that even MODs can correct for the sake of the forum. We have a report button and can report a post thats need correction.
But a selfish me, myself, my spelling... is not accepted..

PS. I lost my Blackberry and was reduced to a 'basic' phone with no predictive tex.. dictionary.. I refused to send text msgs because of the pain in typing and also the temptation to eat up my alphabets, i stuck with the accepted ' U for 'you' 2 for to and 4- for.

well the bottom line... lazy posts not allowed and there should be measures to keep this out of the forum.

This is one big reason I have been "Idi-Amin"ish on this SMS issue.  It is done by other forums for very valid reasons, and our decision is validated based on the same history. 

And one final time, we are not the grammer police... we are the SMS lingo police.
