Just got back from school...
(Oh yeah~~ You get the time right. I'll be having this 夜間部學生 life for a whole year...)
Anyways. We had an interesting topic in class today. Language. (Dauh~~ Of course we talked about language, it's a linguistic class...) The thing is that, Japanese people think that Japanese is degenerated in a way, especially among the youth. Then the prof. asked us if we feel the same way in English. That's an interesting topic. We noticed that people now use computers so frequently, and some sorta "e-language" developed. Now people use "b4" as "before", "ttyl" as "talk to you later", and "LOL" as "laugh out loud", etc. People can't even spell the words correctly. Another example is that, we now seldom use adverbs, which is grammatically wrong but we still treat it as if we're correct. "He walks slow." is what we say in our conversations, and nobody would say you're wrong. However, all of us know that "He walks slowly." is the right way of saying it. That's where we found English is degenerating too.
How about Chinese? I believe there are so many example that I come up with. (actually, I personally hate people type 注音, such as....這是我ㄉ. And I hate people type 斜音字, such as 這是偶的. WHAT THE HELL??? Do you speak "standard Chinese" at all???)
Ok, Mimi is now off for dinner.
(hotpot tomorrow, yay!!!!!!!!)
