  • KOLA, INSIDE LONDON. 11 years ago

    You need deliverance from illiteracy if you can't detect nothing wrong with your 'TwiEnglish'.

  • Coach 11 years ago

    You are the literate here so we are waiting to learn from you so go ahead and point out the mistakes so that we will know what you are made of.

  • KOLA, INSIDE LONDON. 11 years ago

    I have given you a clue, verb confusion. You can't refer to 'somebody' and say 'your'.'Who is the 'Your' referring to?

    Do I have to be teaching you English Grammar this hour of the day, Gosh!

    Those Educated Illiterates see Ghana as Kumasi, Mangazine, Kejetia, Hydiem, Yaa bodom, etc.

    They should come out to the Civilized cities in the coastal areas in Ghana to get some eye opening.
