So, this is my sixth post i think, and I’m going to talk about grammatical errors on status post.
Well, first, status on social
media is common nowadays. I think everybody at least has 1 account of social
media. Name it, facebook, twitter, line, bbm, Whatsapp, wechat, instagram,
weibo, youtube chanel, snapshoot, and many more.
And for those people who
doesn’t have English as their first language, writing one in English will make
they look smart and cooler as they tought ( me too actually, lol ). But English
has grammar. Which actually hard to understand. Take example as Indonesian language doesn’t have grammar and
past tense, or perfect or the other tense.
Hence, this happened.
Okay…I blurred and censored the name so I hope this post
doesn’t cause any harm. And I screen shooted this from one of the famous social
media where you can share photos and videos J
you-know-which-one.
It written “Even i’m
glance there, i’ve never see you. Where have you’ve been?”
First, Use an adjective after a linking verb. So since glance is verb, or adverb, or noun (I
checked Oxford Dictionary don’t worry) so it should be written just I glance. No linking verb needed.
Second, i’ve never see
you. Okay, so the correct one is I’ve
never seen (V3) you. But I think,
if it connected to the first, just I
never see you will work.
Third, where have
you’ve been? I’m kind of confusing when I read this one. I search up the
internet and I concluded that I think, the correct one is just where have you been?
But, I think, people from those countries who don’t speak
English as their first language can have right grammar too.
Like this one.
She went to Beijing couple days ago so when telling the
story, she uses past tense. “We also went
to a PUMA store where I bought the That Good Good red jacket J
and oh, they were playing Luhan’s PUMA ads there. His signature was there as
well, but the staff said he hasn’t come to this branch.”
First she even wrote I with capital. Wow… If Microsoft word
doesn’t correct me, I’ll write it just i.
Second, I think it’s correct to use past tense. Since it
happened couple days ago. And when she talked about the event that doesn’t
happen yet, she used the present.
So I think that’s it? I know this post also have many
grammatical errors *sob* I’m sorry, I’ll study harder~
See you in next post~
