Hi Jeff. Yes, in a broad sense we can understand what she's trying to say (hi I'm a 12 year old give me a part), but in this instance surely you agree that some of her individual sentences make no sense at all?

I continue to comment on these examples because I just love the irony. I was in the original Perth production of Hating Alison Ashley, and the character called 'Margeart' was a child who couldn't spell her own name, 'Margaret'. I'm afraid I find bec's statement "i stared as Margete an dumb ,comedy laugh character" hilarious for that reason.

Whenever people start arguing about the rights and wrongs of the language and whether we should be correct or not, any error (deliberate or accidental) becomes full of irony and very funny.

'hypocrasy', and 'taking people serious' about their 'grammer' are phrases that really ought to be avoided, they're just cracking me up too much.

Cheers
Craig
