明星講咩都無所謂ㄌ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~作者: Prince_ak47 時間: 2006-6-28 04:24 PM 標題: "Good to meet you" is absolutely acceptable and correct
it's just that in hk,people tends to put into memory some ordinary replies like when people ask you, what is your name, you tend to reply "my name is ...." while u can reply "it;s ....." or simply say your name. One more classical example is , when people ask you, how are you?We were taught to reply like this" I'm fine, Thank you" since elementary and it kind of engraved into our mind that whenever we receive questions like that, we answer automatically...language is supposed to be lively and not robotic....next time when u criticize people, pls make sure about your criticism first, you have your right to criticize somebody, but others too have the right of not being slandered by you.I dont see anything unfair about Mr. Fong being the ambassador of english language, since he has the perfect credentials among the artist, HKU graduate with publicity and power to appeal. ; m3 ~/ v1 }8 Q- c: \
please don't get me wrong, i'm not an avid fan of Mr. Fong, it's just that i'm fed up with you guys and ur unreasonable and non-corroborative criticism about him, if u think he's filthy, check up for yourself in the mirror and see for yourself who's filthy....and next time you have any complain, or if you envy the fact that he can get close with some hearthrob female artist of yours....then better think of this, do u have what it takes to have those girls?what credentials? money? academic status? physical appearance? and how about this? HK representative in olympic games....can u swim like he does? or you guys were just living in your own fantasy and staying in the net looking " not for useful information but for porn and nudity.... wake up...u don't have what he does have because you don't deserve......period and full stop.作者: 阿感 時間: 2006-6-28 08:36 PM

Prince_ak47: I agree with you. There's textbook English vs. everyday English. I work and live in US for years, and you'd be surprised how many native born US citizens don't speak textbook English in their daily life. 4 T' j2 i( B6 Y$ ^0 b( {) \; n9 l
Aaron's English is very good, and 'good to meet you' seems fine to me too. Language is used to communicate. Unless you are in positions that require you to have good command of the language (i.e. politicians, teachers, senior corporate executives, lawyers), it is really no big deal to speak the way he speaks.作者: stockman 時間: 2006-7-7 10:05 AM
