Once Again Poor Enunciation, Confusing Singular With Plural, Missing Prepositions

 


I have raised this point before. 

There is something wrong with the teaching of English in the country.  The same mistakes are repeated again and again. 

People tend to confuse the singular with the plural. For example they miss adding the 's' for plural or they do add the 's' although it is singular. 

In the clip above, Najib says "colleges" (plural) when it should be just 'college' (singular).

Then he misses an apostrophe 's' in Barisan Nasional. It should be Barisan Nasional's. 

He also misses the preposition 'to' in 'can confirm you'. It should be 'can confirm TO you'.

The other common mistake (which I have pointed out) is confusing he with she and him with her.

The views expressed are those of the writer and do not necessarily reflect those of MMKtT.
