Call me a proofreader, a faultfinder, a backstabber, or whateverticklesyourfancy. But if you teach a language (including how to WRITE in that particular language) and you do not read what you yourself write – let alone edit it – go stuff it where the sun doesn’t shine. Boleh tak?
Code-switching is fine. We do that all the time because we do speak more than just our mothertongue. No worries. But eloy! Subject-Verb Agreement, Conditionals, and all the 13++ Tenses yang memang men’tense’-sionkan umat manusia…sendiri mau ingat lah, eloy!
Cuba bawak-bawak edit sikit hasil penulisan sedara-sedari tersebut. Mengikut buku Tatabahasa yang kita belajau sedekad setengah yang lalu, ada perbezaan antara:
Who would ever thought…
and
Who would ever think…
or
Who would have ever thought… / Who would ever have thought…
Dapatkah anda spot the difference/error? Hanya jauhari yang mengenal maknikam. So, tak nak ke bawak-bawak berkenalan dengan grammar (I mean CORRECT grammar)? Asek kasik alasan typo je. Sloppy lah!
p.s. Opocot mak engkau! Tak patah tiat, bak kata my mother! The term “mother tongue” is supposed to be two words. Bukan ‘mothertongue’. Tak ada dalam kamus hidupku!
Questa è Enida 
Muahahaha!
Saper yang makan cili dia lah yang terasa pedasnya, kan? Tapi setahu I, you makan cake – with icing on top summore. Your English is not only a muffin my dear, siap ada idiom as the icing! You bake, girl! (Dalam nada ‘You rock, girl!’)
I am so angry I feel like breaking my English (to join you breaking whatever languages that can be broken). When I finish breaking my English, I’ll break my Malay and Kadazan Dusun pulak. And then I’ll ask some English teachers:
Where did you WENT to studying there grammar? B’coz they’re grammar are so best, they can very the well be a study cases for an PhD topic or title. So best lah my questions this one.
Hold your horses Enida, you marah kat I ke ni? Aiyo, sorry la, never meant to hurt your eyes and soul with my ungrammatical grammar. Peh ni I tulis in my broken malay plak lah, which is even worse than my broken English!;o)
