I love Sylkat

Post Reply New Topic

The most interesting person in the whole WP. One of the real persons in the world I wish I could have met.

I love Sylkat too. She's awesome. One of the funniest and loveliest people I have never met.

And brilliant.

It's about time she showed up here to see how popular she is.

She will. Definitely. (I have always had troubles in knowing how to spell "definately". Is it definitely or definately or what? I'm not going to google.)

Definitely. Although the spelling is misleading, as it sounds more like definAtely. Maybe that's why so many people get it wrong.

In the good old days of Steam Internet, I used to chat with Americans and Australians and Canadians (some New Zealanders too) in #worldchat. There were people who, instead of saying "could have", spelled it "could of". For the first time in my life, I had met Americans who can't spell their own language. I was perplexed. Even worse, some younger members had no idea when to spell "to" and when to spell "too."

My eyes were opened.

Could have / of

To/ too

There / their / they're

Terrible offences are often committed in writing these words.

I see lots of people on the language site I am on (Duolingo), and they can't even write basic English. I wonder how they think they will get to grips with the difficult parts of a second language when they don't even understand their own.

Yes. What you said above is what I had in mind.

My favorite is this, "Where ware were wear."

Hear here!


Goodnight Krabo.

Oh yes, and we got slightly off topic (again!). Love you Sylkat.

We all love her. Rare kind of person. -- Sylkat, if you ever come back, I promise I'll never again mention black soup or bone vodka.

A lot of these threads are not the same without Sylkat.

I really like her, however surprising she might find that.

She'll be back. Give her time. Right, Sylkat?

Or as Aussies often say, "she'll be right, mate".

Hope she's doing well. I really like her sense of humour.

The clowny countertenor voice of the bizarre thread sings to her in dreams.

She can't resist its seductive siren call forever...

This thread must be kept alive. Some day she will be back and sees that she's important. Like you said to me. (Tears in my eyes.)

Sorry about my inconsistent grammar. Feelings.
