"i look back at it i HATE it when anyone says that and u know wut well i also hate it how u talk like yo... & no somthing cuz God gave u a language to use so use it right"

I'm not asking about how its gramatically structred. I'm asking if the statement she made was wrong or right.

I have no idea what you're asking, either!! But I wanted to mention (in response to the previous answer) that *no* English speaker ever said "ye olde"!! That isn't supposed to be a "y"; it's a thorn--a letter that is no longer used in the English alphabet that looked similar to, but not the same as, today's "y". It was pronounced as "th" is today...

I think Andy is right also because a friend friends, which to capture your attention, and this is were I see that clearly "I also hate it how u talk, like yo..., & know something< it seams atheist to me, she should have said, I hate what it said not th e way it said it., this is pure death languages, to make sense only to atract with the confucion?. The statement is wrong as well than deceiving< Ask your real friend what she/he trully thinks about this?

All I can say is "WAH"! it doesn't make much sense, but if the gist is right then I would disagree with her statement as there are many different ways of speaking and just saying that you hate one way of speaking does not make it wrong. There are so many different accents, dialects even vernacular within a language that who's to say who is right and who is wrong?

Languages change to meet the needs of people. If you can get your point across, then you are using language correctly. Purists would have languages stay static...but then we'd be talking about 'ye olde' and 'thine' and other words that make little sense today. So ...I think your friend's friend was wrong.
