CW awards for the first week of Dec

[Son Of Coco]

Sorry mate, little glitch, but I have fixed it now.

A Freudian slip perhaps?

 

[adharcric]

Anyone going to comment on how SS's apotheosis of glory coincided with him adopting a picture of the great man as his avatar? Or founding his own church? Rumours are he sacrificed the GM-OLAS equivalent of a sacrificial lamb (Michael Atherton) to dark powers in order to achieve such a result!

Apparently SS achieved eternal salvation after making that sacrifice. He's also vowed to make such a sacrifice a weekly routine.

One day I'll win one of these, and you'll all see.

Thats just a dirty rumor, mate.

Rumour - we speak proper English here!

Its the evolved version of English I'm speaking, not the dire version they speak on that little island .

 

[Matt79]

Hey - Australia is a big island

 

[steds]

It's the butchered version of English I'm speaking, not the proper version they speak on that little island .

Corrected.

USA! USA! USA! Okay I'll shut up now.

 

[Dravid]

I seriously prefer American English over English.

 

[PhoenixFire]

English English is the right way of speaking it. Fact.

 

[Dravid]

English English is the right way of speaking it. Fact.

It's an opinion, not a fact. Otherwise America would have stuck to English, instead of developing their own version of it. When I talk in person I use slang, and street talk anyway so it doesn't matter to me.

Technically the correct and proper way of speaking English is the way that it is spoken in England. That is fact, not opinion.

 

[Dravid]

Okay then America's official language isn't English. It's American English. If they have their own language, then that doesn't mean some other language is the right way to go.

 

[silentstriker]

America does not have an official language, actually.

 

[Dravid]

America does not have an official language, actually.

Okay then, the most spoken language.

 

[Dravid]

Btw while we are on this topic I might as well mention I hate the English accent. No offence to anyone here, but I hate how the word can't is said. It's the most annoying thing ever.

 

[PhoenixFire]

I'm not sure whether everyone says this, but I don't actually think that English people have an accent at all. Most people pronounce things like it says in the Oxford dictionary (which is the offically correct way of saying it), and doesn't have an accent at all. Except maybe if you have a specific regional accent, then it sounds fairly flat and normal, and correct to the dictionary.

The oxford dictionary has some annoying ways to say words then. Seriously I feeling like ripping my brain out of my head when I hear the word Can't "the way it's supposed to be said". I can't explain in words what goes on in my head when I hear it.

 

[PhoenixFire]

Is this in a particular regional accent, of just the flat english way of saying it, because when you say it normaly, it doesn't sound remarkable.
