GRAMMATICAL ERRORS (GBAGAUN) that 'we' hate.

 

 "I have CATCHED you".   

The 'gbagaun' above can lead to 'hemicrania' , if you know what I mean.

Imagine a graduate of mass communication uttering such GBAGAUN.

Well I managed to survive the 'grammatobomb' today  but I miss our mummy Patience .

Sometimes i wonder who were the english men that sat down to define the rules and laws of english language or was it innate in them to speak proper english while some people struggle to arrange their tenses in the right way just to avoid ridicule. One thing i have noticed is that people who didn’t speak english in their younger years find it difficult to use the proper tenses no matter how wide their vocabulary is. 

When I try to correct some of them, they say "English is not my mother tongue", Then why even try??
I have a friend that makes the most annoying kind of grammatical error, well I named it the substitution error.

The substitution error as I tagged it, is done by substituting a word with another just because they are pronounced the same though they have different meanings (homophones), Example; write/right, ate/8 , you're/your. 'Brian, what you did to me is not write o' #gbagaun.  

My advice is, "if you no sabi english, just speak pidgin for us, no dey try form, you go just fall your hand"
