Perhaps not in Canukanese, but it certainly is in English.

Gotta agree with bruce.

 

[Ryan_man]

Canukanese? I think the words you are searching for are, "PROPER ENGLISH". Freaking 2pac fans, all the same.

Your IQ just dropped 50 points.

 

[Ryan_man]

Daniel, I have NEVER seen the word funnier is ANY dictionary's I have ever looked through. Check a Canadian dictionary please. BTW, why the heck are you using an American dictionary? I suppose you still say "Zee" instead of "Zed".

 

[Ryan_man]

Oh btw, if I could get you my essay from grade 7, I would. I got 15 point taken off for using the so called word "funnier". My teachers always taught me to say "more enjoyable" or "more funny". Oh well.

 

[Daniel]

Obviously, your teachers didn't do a good job teaching you. Funnier is a word, in the English language. It's accepted in all forms of English, just not to you, it seems. I too, have been taught that "more funny" is incorrect and improper.

On a related note, I pronounce it "zee".

No. I have a preference.

Moving to the US is not something I'm going to do for atleast 20 years from now. I've enough problems here in Canada as it is.

Yes, the language you guys speak up there in Canukistan. I assumed it was called Canukanese, but maybe it's Canukistanese. I don't really know for certain.

Hmmph, I'll go ask my neighbor, the Canuck..... He said the proper term for the language Canadians speak is something called..."English". :devious2:

 

[biggulp]

This thread is going grossly out of topic.

Then your teacher is wrong.

I've heard people saying

You're the funniest person on Earth

but not

You're the most funny person on Earth...

Once I used more funny and I got wrong... Anyway there IS funnier and I find it in my dictionary.

Oh by the way, I live in Singapore, which uses British English, and I pronounce Z as Zed.

I always thought it was British English.

If you speak English IMO it's either English or American.

Eh. Tomayto - Tomahto. I'm getting a sense of what Ryan's gettin at. It sounds like he either went to a finishing school of some sort, or his English teacher did and carried it on to her job (she shouldnt have though).

Grossly off-topic?
[X] Yes!
[ ] No.

back on topic: what is IPB? I've been kinda out of the picture as you all know. I know about vB, phpBB, ikon, yaBB... but never heard of IPB?
