This just makes me laugh. Every once in a while I get a nice little nugget from my lad that makes me laugh pretty hard. This is one of them.

My lad is supposed to meet one of our church's engineers (), who is Arabic. Well, I told him that communication might be a problem with him because our engineer speaks broken English. Well, that's no problem with my lad. See here:

The issue of communication will not be a barries between him and me because i am going to use broken English to communicate to him.

Wow. What logic. Since speaks poor English, if the lad uses broken English, he should be able to understand. Makes sense doesn't it?

hee heee brilliant suttf, i love it when i get a stupid comment like that.

maybe you should write back in damaged english or obliterated english and see if he can read it

What? It sounds like the perfect solution to me. Laughing

Tell the lad to practice his broken English in all subsequent emails to you so you are assured he will be able to effectively communicate w/ the engineer. That should provide some nice entertainment for you.

That's hysterical - with a bit of luck no one will be able to understand anything. Laughing

That's very funny.

Come to think of it, I use that sort of thing all the time when talking with people who don't speak English:

First try speaking louder. If that doesn't work, speak loudly with an accent that sounds similar to the speaker's native language. If that doesn't work, speak very bad French, very loudly, regardless of the speaker's native language. Very Happy

My attempts at accents always turn south Asian, most likely Pakistani, within a few sentences Sad

I love the idea of de-educating the lad to use Broken English dialect.

This is your boy Kevin isnt it?

Anyway, love it Twisted Evil

No, this is a TWAT that YW, Professor So and So and myself are working on. He was donated to me by a member going on a leave of absence. Sadly, Kevin seems to have figured out that the TWAT's rival church, the Church of the Hardened Nipple is not real. His emails are few and far between.

Looks like you have a good replacement though.

That is hilarious. I think that, for ease of communication, you should start using broken English too. That seems to be the common language. Laughing

LAD LOGIC 101

Imagine $$$MONEY$$$ Think of things to say to get this $$$MONEY$$$. Say anything. Say everything. Say things that contradict everything you've said. Just get the $$$MONEY$$$ Lather, rinse, repeat.

^^^I think that's a pretty accurate assessment of the lad mentality. Laughing

^^ And here I thought they were thinking "Snausages� Snausages� Snausages�, give me some Snausages� I want Snausages� SNAUSAGESSSSSS�!!!!!" Confused

I love it!

Sometimes I have a hard time baiting in unbroken English. But I just love that line. That's pure siggy material!

Posted: Sat Mar 08, 2008 12:08 am

Fantastic! I wish I had a lad like that, I'd ask him to teach me broken English as I don't know how to speak it. I'd love to learn!

Good moaning! Laughing

Hello - I'm new at this, and this has probably been discussed many times... But I've been taking their email addresses and signing up for any and all "Free Offers" I come across or email subscriptions I can. Will that keep them busy?

Latin is one of the old lost languages. I wonder if any of them know Pig Latin?

This guy is a real star. Logic logic like this just shows me that he is going to pay off nicely throughout his career. I hope he likes travel. YW, Prof and I have learned that Chad is beautiful this time of year and we are shaping him up to go meet Hamdan where they can speak broken English together.

EDIT: It looks like he is a little eager to travel. He just needs a little poking.

Quote:

Dear Rev Benjamin,
Please less i forget, give me the address of Hamdan in Chad so that i will meet him . If possible on monday you can instruct him to pay the money with the information i gave you.
I want to know if that is possible on monday so that i will perpare on wensday to reach on friday or saturday in chad.
If the idea is not condusive for you then you ask him to try once more.
He can also make it through road to Nigeria maiduguru boronu state.than for him to come to lagos.I will try my best if he can travel by road and enter to maiduguru.that is the boundering between Nigeria and Chad. The only thing he will give them is tip either $100 or$200 only and they will leave to enter Nigeria.

Can someone pass me the Broken English <-> Dutch dictionary ISBN numbers please. I'm not native English as it is, but always willing to learn more. Indispensable in this line of work .. Wink

He does know that An Arabic broken english will sound nothing like the Nigerian broken english right? And the Oaf is actually ready to travel to a war zone. U got this lad eating out of your hands. keep us posted.

~ dutchbait,

I can't tell if you're joking or not. So will just presume that you aren't.
"Broken English" is just badly structured English, usually used by those who don't speak it as a first language.
