#ComeToClassWithKingIfey
#WrongEnglishWeSpeak.
Today, we shall look at how badly we use comparative adjectives alongside pronouns in sentences .
I know many celebrations happened last week; but don't worry, I brought your cake to class.
The ones that copied my heartfelt writeup for my dad and didn't give me the credit... Jisikwanu ike.
Some of you are smelling like the yesterday's fun they had. Looks like nobody had a bath....hangover I suppose....continue.
Anyway, let us get down to brass tacks.
Take a look at these expressions..
Emeka is bigger than me.
Mandi is richer than him
Amaka is finer than her.
We are stronger than them.
Something is wrong with all the sentences.
When the full sentences are written, they look laughable.
Imagine these expressions
Emeka is bigger than me Is
Mandi is richer than him is
Anulika is finer than her is
We are stronger than them is.
Do they make sense?
Exactly!
So the right way to say them are.
Emeka is bigger than I.
Mandi is richer than he.
Anulika is finer than she.
Etc.
Finally
Preposition is pronounced as
Prepa-zishn and not pripo-zishon.
/prepəˈzɪʃn/
That cap we wear that people call beret is pronounced as
/'berei/ and not
/be'ret/
Facebook made this morning class difficult. I finished typing and it wiped everything away. Jeez I felt like spanking Mark 100 times with Dwayne Johnson's palm.
By The way, are Beyonce's children Gemini? Awww.. They will do great things.
Finally the class with King Ifey is done and dusted.
Those of you who copied my fathers' day post and didn't credit me. You are the reason this country looks like it is stagnated. Why not be creative.
I need to be on the next flight to Uzbekistan for another vital meeting.
Toodles!
*Walks out of the class, peeps through the window*
Don't ask me what toodles mean... It is your assignment.
