According to the Merriam-Webster dictionary online, one of the definitions of grammar is...
the study of the classes of words, their inflections and their functions and relations in the sentence
I believe that not everyone in the Read.cash.com platform uses English as their primary language. My primary language is Bahasa Melayu. If I do not write properly in Bahasa Melayu, you will not be able to understand the topics I am writing on because the translator might not be able to translate it for you.
For example, ( I am using google translate for Bahasa Melayu translation below)
In the other part of the articles, I wrote on my own with the help of auto-correction tools that I just found. I will share the links at the end of my article.
sia belum lagi puas mau main tu game. (If you are someone from Sabah, Malaysia you will understand this.)
not yet satisfied anymore want to play tu game. ( This does not sound right)
Saya belum lagi puas main itu permainan.(This is a bit better written in Bahasa Melayu)
I am not satisfied playing the game yet. (How does this sound like? even though it still has grammatically error.)
From the above example...
Both sentences written in Bahasa Melayu will be directly understood by someone from Sabah, Malaysia but the English translation using google translator will make someone else confused and probably will not be continuing reading my articles because they cannot understand.
That is the reason I am a bit strict in moderating Share Some Thoughts and share your talents community. I can read but I also want to understand.
How about leaving a comment?
How am I going to reply to you if I cannot understand well?
We will be like humans and aliens. Won't it be nice if we can comment and replies or perhaps chat because of an article? We will have the chance to gain more points.
Isn't that the reason we are all here? To earn money?
To tell you the truth, I am also not good at my use of grammar but I am open to any comments that will help me improve.
Well, this is only my own personal thoughts.
How about you?
