Not talking proper like....

[Blue Rose]

Ok, so we've had the threads about text talk & mis-spellings on here but what really gets your goat in the spoken language?

Personally, I hate double negatives or when people say wiv instead of with; or free instead of three. Oh and one that REALLY bugs me is when someone says for eg "look what I done" when it should be "look what I've done" or "look what I did"

I'm going to stop now as I could go on & on, lol

I try not to write the way I speak 'cause if I did yis wouldn't have a clue what I was on about... d'ya know what I mean? :lol:

 

[Blue Rose]

The use of double negatives annoys me, as does the insidious habit of inserting profanities between every word. Equally irritating is when people start everything they say with something like "at the end of the day", grrr!

The overuse of the word 'yeah' or 'like' superbly demonstrated on the only way is essex with lots of Huns and babes in the middle.

I was at a party and one of my staffs sister was there... She kept on saying,"at the end of the day...." her sister always finished it up with,"it gets dark!" absolutely creased up!! I still giggle about it now!

I will not accept being called "hun". Cringeworthy.
"like" annoys me too, as does the verbal affectation "innit"

I remind our juniors that they come from Bromley, hardly the Bronx!

 

[bombini]

D'ya know what I mean ??? and Not being funny but.....

Hate both of them.

I can't pronounce 'TH' so I say free instead of three

 

[The Guild]

Brought instead of bought.

And like!

And likkle!

And swearing three times in every sentence!

And... I'd better stop now.

 

[gillian w]

Basically this and basically that...... and i should also stop because im as guilty as anyone.Half the time i can barely string a decent sentence together at all.

 

[lauren89]

eh?
You what?

Using weren't instead of wasn't or was not, e.g. I weren't there.

I shall have to remember that one!!

 

[VHunter]

Don't poke the dragon..... I would likely offend someone.

There are one in a million ways that you can annoy me with the spoken word. Shall we leave it at that? LOL

But I have to say... I just LOVE watching shows/movies with characters from the UK when they yell "OY!" I've started saying it now LOL:lol:
I'm not sure what "OY!" means, I just like how surprised they sound when they say it, like they've been pinched in the arse hahahahahahahaha

 

[Pretty Geeky]

I would OF instead of have!! :irked:

I 100% agree-that is the worst!!
