Buyers asking for sample and never return?

[somaginer1996]

Oh boy, is this because I didn’t order one of you spell casting gigs?

Common, you get nothing in trying to make people feel bad.

Thanks, all the same, your naggings are gonna make me better.

Well, that escalated quickly. No need to ridicule people when they’re offering legitimate criticism.

misscrystal does have a point though. I type on mobile half the time I’m on the forum, but it doesn’t prevent me from keeping my grammar straight most of the time. And I’m a pesky millennial, too! 😛

Anyway, you have all be helpful.

Thanks Peace

Well, Missyrystal’s approach was not rude at all. I would never say such a word. However, she did mention some errors could be found on my gigs. I asked her to point them out, so I can do the necessary corrections. The very next thing that she told was that all of my writings do have some grammar errors. _

Anyways, you all have been helpful to me.

_Thanks, _

Peace

• My grammar is not perfect, but I did some editing, in order to be easier for you to get the idea. I would recommend you to read the book called “My Grammar & Me (Or Should That be Me)”, download Grammarly, and watch some YouTube videos.

It sounds like English is a second language, or it could be ebonics. That is actually my best guess. Those who speak ebonics are not usually familiar with correct, standard grammar.

E·bon·ics:
American black English regarded as a language in its own right rather than as a dialect of standard English.

It might be, but I think that in Ebonics, they have correct tenses (same as in standard English), right?

Also, I am not a person, that is “allowed” to handout grammar tips to people because I am not a native speaker. I have read some books on styling and grammar, but that does not make me an expert. Honestly, Grammarly finds “Advanced grammar errors” in my manuscripts. I have used Grammarly’s pro trial and most of the so-called “advanced errors” were about my style of writing, but not in the tenses, interpunction, and punctuation.

[misscrystal]

No ebonics uses incorrect tenses frequently:

“He go down to the store yesterday.” That would be an example.

This would also be an example:

“Since I join Fiverr, the buyer has always been asking for a sample”

ebonics
African American Vernacular English (AAVE), also called African American English, Black English, Black Vernacular, or Black English Vernacular (BEV), is a type variety (dialect, ethnolect and sociolect) of the American English language. It is known colloquially as Ebonics (a portmanteau of “ebony” and “phonics”). With pronunciation that in some respects is common to Southern American English, the variety is spoken by many blacks in the United States. AAVE shares many characteristics with various Creole English dialects spoken by blacks in much of the world. AAVE also has pronunciation, grammatical structures, and vocabulary in common with various West African languages. Ebonics is not merely just the use of urban or “slang” words, but rather it is the manipulation and transformation of the English language. (from Urbandictionary)

Yeah, gotcha! To be honest, I had not encountered, not even a single person, that spoke in Ebonics to me.

I’ve encountered it in my life often as a resident of various states in the Southern United States. It’s interesting.

I lived in Ohio, I guess, that I wasn’t moving in those circles. On the other hand, I was living near the OSU campus in a mainly white area. Speaking of my country, I have heard people speaking/writing in some odd form of English, mainly mixed with Macedonian (which is a slavic language) grammar and sentence structure.

From my observations. people in Germany, Netherlands, and Sweden all have perfect English grammar. Which is really interesting (at least for me).

Yes I’ve known many Europeans who speak and write perfect English. They study it extensively. Romanians in particular are very impressive in this regard.

I think that’s not 100% correct. I have a pretty good education, but my English is not ‘perfect’. Also, the old generation, for example, my parents not speaking a single word English actually.

Just my 2 cents from Germany. 🙂

In Germany some study English and some don’t speak it at all. Of course the older generations are much less likely to speak it.

Did someone call me? 👀 I’m easily summoned.

Curious, though, as a fellow Romanian I wasn’t aware of that :thinking:

@gig_freak thanks for sharing that book title, I wasn’t aware of it - I’m still having time issues preventing me from reading The Chicago Manual of Style, which I really-really want to read! I’m a man of style, I just don’t have the time for style, yet 😅

A Romanian friend knows every word in the English language and studies the dictionary for fun. Along with the charming accent all the Romanians I’ve known speak perfect English.

@misscrystal I think I’m one of the few who does not speak English.I am using Google Translate and Grammarly for Chrome.However, in 3 years and a half, these days I have 19,000 complete orders on Fiverr.

@soulviking - My assumption was based on the 30 clients I had from Germany. All of them had clear English, strong grammar, and great style. Yes, I do know about the older generation, many people told me that 20 years ago in Germany people didn’t speak English as they do today. 🙂

I have spoken to a lot of Germans in real life, and they all had great English (or lets say near perfect).
