| you guys are killing me you really are.
every now and then when you push me to the brink i will produce a lesson
this is your first
common - mostly used to mean 'frequently used', 'of no special quality', it has various other meanings too but i won't make things complicated - this is the meaning those speaking english as a second language should use.
it is not an acceptable shortening for 'come on', ignoring the fact it's the same number of letters and only lacks the space, it's wrong.
c'mon is the generally accepted shortening.

| if i was speaking dutch and kept getting words wrong - especially if i were using words that had a completely different meaning - i would want to know.
and it would probably drive you crazy | |

| I like this It helps everyone getting that little bit better in English I usually just write the words wrong/letters switching places, that kind of thing. But very nice idea. | |

| lol, nice topic... can't wait for the next classes with Ms. Delrio!
Although i also point what Chrissie and Tinus said. Sometimes native english speakers don't understand that it's not easy to find the exact words in another language and, as a consequence, non-natives tend to transform that word spoken in their language to a crazy english word ^^ (it happens a lot with me trying to write in spanish, english not that often anymore). | |
