I answered another quiz in blogthings.com and it's about my english. There are 20 questions and I got 8/20...4 in the grammar, 2 in the spelling, 1 in the punctuation, and the vocabulary.
It's a bit depressing, because I always get a grade of 85% in English. I don't like English, but this blog made me like it a bit. I mean, I don't want to write something that will make me look..."innocent".
*sigh* I don't encounter words like obsequious, ponderous, exhort, halycon, or craven. Just simple words. I do want to broaden my vocabulary, but I never encounter those words. I don't even know "uphold" until our teacher in ETHN01 used it!!!
Well, some fiction stories that I read doesn't have proper punctuation,...but that's a lame excuse, isn't it? I don't know hot to use " ; " and I'm still confused about commas.
I don't like reading poems because some poems are very "deep". Then, I think that all poems are "deep". (I just checked the spelling of "stereotype," but it took me a while to find the word in the dictionary, because I keep on looking for "steriotype," "steariotype," and "stiriotype". When I found the correct spelling of that word, I changed my mind on using it in my last sentence, because I don't know how to!!! ...I found out that microsoft has a spell checker a long time ago, but I don't know where I can find it...Man, I'm lame...)
I get the correct spelling of "receipt," "conceived," and "retreive"...by luck. I don't know what to use. ei, or ie. I joined involuntarily in our group spelling bee when I was a 3rd year student, and I felt like I contributed a lot in our group. I know the spelling of "gnome," and "squall," because I encounter those words in a video game. Gnome is an earth spirit in "Legend of Mana," and Squall is a character in "Final Fantasy VIII."
*sigh* Grammar is like Chemistry and Algebra. They swim in rules. I tend to remember the rules, but my spelling, punctuation, and vocabulary pull me down.
There are 20 questions in the quiz, and I got 80% in the grammar, 40% in the spelling, and 20% in the punctuation and vocabulary. Obviously, there are 5 questions for each of the, um, categories. That means I got my score correctly ( I mean the score that I put at my first paragraph). Do the math.
*sigh* Math is something that I can strut off. That's why I study it a lot. Just like what Rock Lee in "Naruto" did. He doesn't know how to use any ninjutsu ("ninja techniques") and genjutsu ("illusion techniques"), so he specialized in taijutsu ("body techniques" or "hand-to-hand combat".)
