| Bad English on MyLot, your thoughts on how to stop it?? | | I am very new to MyLot, and in the short few days I have been here, I have noticed a few particular people post up hundreds of new discussions everyday, this doesn't bother me at all, if the questions are good and a good discussion question AND if they are put in a way which is easy to understand, but the things I have read are written is such bad english that I find it hard to even know what these people are asking, now I know it would be unfair to stop anybody from non English speaking countries to use this site, but how DO we stop these people from posting in such bad english, with such pointless questions??? They are basically using the site to make money and for nothing else whereas I am here to talk to people, ask serious questions and of course the money is a great addition to that, but it is not my prime reason for using MyLot!So what are your thoughts on the people who use this site just to make money and are constantly posting rubbish and in bad English which is difficult to understand? | |

| | Many discussions hard to follow because of bad English | | Is anyone else having a hard time finding discussions to participate in? A lot of them are either extremely juvenile or the English is so bad that I can't understand it. I realize a lot of "foreigners" are "mylotters" - and that's great - but how do you find decent discussions here? | |

| Does it matters if you have a BAD ENGLISH? | | Does it matters you if you have bad english. I am asking this question because I see many people all over the web having bad English and even then they try to speak typical English. What the hell? Why don't they feel shy and try to improve their English. If they cannot improve their English. | |
| | Was Burris being clever or just bad English???? | | I noticed when Burris was explaining why he could not be involved in Blagojevich's sale of Obama's senate seat he gave the following response:Responding to questions on whether supporters had actually made calls to Blagojevich on his behalf, Burris laughingly responded, "If they did, it was certainly no 'pay to play' involved, because[u][b]I don't have no money[/b]."[/u]
http://abcnews.go.com/Blotter/Story?id=6601973&page=2This is a double negative which actually means he does have money!!! So is he being clever or just does not know correct English grammar? What do you think. IMO I do not trust any the politicians involved in this Blagojevich scandal. I hope they do impeach him tomorrow. | |

| What is good English and Bad English? | | Dear Friends,I have seen people often using the phrase Good and Bad English. Does actually there exist two levels in English. If I use hardcore words will it be good English?
According to me language is language. There should n’t be any divisions. What my friends think about this classification?

Sorry its not very clear since i took the picture using my mobile.The brand of the "cooling fan" sounds Japanese but i bet my favorite blue boxers that its from China. See if anyone can understand what they are saying in the picture. i can manage to understand a few but not all.
