'All right'
DeleteSpace hun. All right.
DeleteLet me quickly bookmark it and hope I remember to correct myself when I am typing hastily.
After my "shorthand" in Uni while jotting down notes,i tried with so much difficulty to get read of my badly written English. Example: ê(the)
Thanks darls.
Delete'All right'...hehehe.
Shorthand is something that I've never been comfortable with. It affected me at a point.A lecturer will be dictating, and I'll be busy writing in calligraphic longhand.
I'm a faster writer now though, thankfully.

ReplyDelete#thanks
Chick Felix wia a u?
ReplyDeleteI don tire to dey wear helmet for you and Stella.
Merry Christmas
Stella used "anyways" today. You are really guilty.
ReplyDeleteThis is very misleading...
ReplyDeleteANYWAYS is an adverb
BROADCASTED when used as a transitive verb past tense
ALRIGHT is both an adverb and adjective
DATA is plural why not Data are plural because its a continuous source of contention
LOOSE is to loosen e.g. loosen your shoe lace or sth
YOU NEED NOT e.g. you need not worry about your appearance
Discussing about... depending on the context
Stella thanks
please explain further you know sm pple use blog as reference point so you should be very sure.
Weldone teacher
DeleteI agree with u
DeleteGod bless you!
DeleteAlright is correct when used informally
ReplyDeleteAnyways is correct in informal North American English
Data is/are is correct (in modern English), depending on usage.
When data is used as a countable noun, it makes sense to use a plural verb e.g. 'the data (or facts) WERE analysed...'.
When used as an uncountable noun however, it makes sense to use a singular verb e.g. 'this data (or information) was collected...'

Weldone teacher
DeleteNice, guilty of none
ReplyDeleteI beg Stella, English no be my papa language. I dey gbagaun am eni hw he enter my mouth. Tie wrapper 4 waist, tie waist 4 wrapper na posin dem speak 2 go use him brain remove d wheat 4 d shaft. I beg sista Stella mke we remove mouth 4 dis mata.

ReplyDeleteThe one-word spelling 'alright" appeared some 75 years after "all right" itself had reappeared from a 400-year-long absence. Since the early 20th century some critics have insisted 'alright' is wrong, but it has its defenders and its users. It is less frequent than all right but remains in common use especially in journalistic and business publications. It is quite common in fictional dialogue, and is used occasionally in other writing
am guilty of reply back.lol
ReplyDeleteMy data are finished, how can I possibly say that, how does it sound to u guys
ReplyDeleteMost of our electronic gadgets use American English while Nigeria use British English.
ReplyDeleteGuilty of one.
ReplyDeleteThanks SDK for the post.
Wow..... am so guilty of some...
ReplyDeleteThanks for sharing
Anyway vs. anyways
ReplyDeleteAnyways is a colloquial variant of the adverb anyway. It has a casual tone and may be considered out of place in formal or serious writing. In such contexts, anyway is safer.
Although considered informal, anyways is not wrong. In fact, there is much precedent in English for the adverbial -s suffix, which was common in Old and Middle English and survives today in words such as towards, once, always, and unawares. But while these words survive from a period of English in which the adverbial -s was common, anyways is a modern construction (though it is now several centuries old).
Anyways is sometimes useful for creating an informal or colloquial tone, which may be what these writers have in mind:
Anyways, it’s time to move on. [NY Times]
Whatever. Home Improvement sucked anyways. [Bleacher Report]
But in writing that is not intended to have a colloquial tone, anyway works in its place—for example:
Why is Google building a Google phone, anyway? [The Atlantic]
It can be nearly impossible to see from publicly available data which banks are extending or restructuring loans they believe will one day fail anyway. [Wall Street Journal]
Anyway, I think it’s pretty hard to make a bad Hurley episode. [Chicago Tribune]
My English isn't bad....my data are finish? Chai ....
ReplyDeleteIt is noted...English is a borrowed language,anything speak able is correct.Thanks anyway.
ReplyDeleteALRIGHT is correct!
ReplyDeleteLol............Nawah oooo.........End time english........Stella, take note!
ReplyDeleteI aff hear
ReplyDeleteSo guilty of Alright.
ReplyDeleteHmmmmmmmmm...
ReplyDelete"Alright" as a word is quietly gaining ground in formal British settingsetting. Won't be surprised if it's officially accepted as a word soon.
