“You don’t have to be great to start something, but you have to start something to become great in it”
Well I’ve started to blog. Hope the above saying becomes true. ;) . Just before I truly start writing posts and my views/ideas/thoughts, I want to draw attention of every cynic/critic/admirer/ fan (let’s hope)/browser/blogger/viewer/follower/…. (Phew). Everyone I wish to tell you 2 things at the start only.
i) “Aoccdrnig to a rscheearch, it deosn't mttaer in waht oredr the ltteers in a wrod are, the olny iprmoetnt tihng is taht the frist and lsat ltteer be at the rghit pclae. The rset can be a toatl mses and you can sitll raed it wouthit porbelm. Tihs is bcuseae the huamn mnid deos not raed ervey lteter by istlef, but the wrod as a wlohe.” As if this survey matters to us at all. We the genX have long ago forgone the tradition of correct spelling. Its quite evident from our chat lingo, sms lingo. We have pioneered the modern English full of strange abbreviations, acronyms, slangs and words without specificity. The only regret is that this piece of research was not known back during our school days. The countless scolding received and marks lost due to spelling mistake could have been avoided. The dreaded surprise dictation tests, the passage writing could have been tackled more easily. Anyways we can just hope that this piece of information opens the eyes of future teachers and saves the future genX from the above said cruelties.
ii) Grammar, it is the “whole system and structure of language”. That is it is just a st of rules agreed upon to make a language universally usable without errors. Now I being one of the genX ,the rebel am against any kind of rules, Grammar included.
Hence people remember while reading my blogs/posts that:
a.) If you find any mistakes in spellings forget them as most of them don,t matter (see (i) above).
b.) If you find any grammatical mistakes then ignore them as my rebellion (you can also support them by continuing the trend).
Well that’s that for now. Will be back soon with more mistakes..oops more rebellions and thoughts.. :)
