@topic, that doesn't mean anything. It's like a Frenchman moving to the US; he doesn't, all of a sudden, start sounding American or stuff like that. When he opens his mouth you can hear his accent, when he writes you can tell he isn't American but that doesn't change the fact he is in the US.

Writing correctly isnt the same as "sounding American"
Re: Why Do Most Nairalanders Fake There Locations by KarmaMod(f): 4:04pm On Nov 17, 2008
Although the same could be said about those in Naija claiming to be in lagos/PH when they are really in some bush in Shagamu grin

He is talking about writing correctly? That's not what I interpreted to be. Nevertheless, it's still stupid because some Europeans and Americans write so bad. And also, migration to a Western nation doesn't not mean that your English automatically improves.

well it's common knowledge that Writing/Reading Comprehension, etc is taken a lot more seriously in the west than in Nigeria where they are mainly about Math & Sciences. Not to say everyone from Nigerian schools write terribly of course. Afterall I did go to secondary school in Naija. tongue
