Grammar

One thing that has really been annoying me is people using bad grammar. I first started to get really annoyed by this when I noticed a teacher (who has her doctorate) that i have and think is terribly ineffective and unintentionally negatively influencing students, uses bad grammar. Like in most of my classes i got all riled up. How could this lady be as strict as she is and condescendingly scold everyone unjustly for things that she just feels are inappropriate, when I have met 5th graders that can speak better than her. Now I generally hate it when people call others hypocrits, or use the word hypocrit at all (yes i use this word alot, and i guess that would mean im a hypocrit), I mean there are valid times that this word can be used however I think people should be trying to do the very best and should only condone and expect out of others the very best. I can say that you should do things right, but thats not saying that i think i do them right, what someone thinks should be how things, themselves are is not always what they really are (a sad, sad fact). Another way/reason that i feel the word is misused, is becuase people can and should change their views on things in light of new perspectives and information, yet i myself have been called hypocritical becuase one day i say that i think something is like this, and then when i see something differently and/or am in enlightened by new information and change my view i see something differently. If this is hypocritical, then hypocracy is a much needed practice. Anyways i think i started this blog talking about grammar, if anyone reads these blogs i should let you know this does and will happen alot. I guess i was talking about hypocracy in light of me using bad grammar and seemingly condemning or getting annoyed by others using the bad grammar, i also started talking about it becuase this is not necessarily what drives my dislike of this teacher or my annoyance of bad grammar in general (maybe, however, it is and i just dont want to admit it). I generally feel there is no place in society for things like professionalism (as it relates to wearing a coat and tie), manners (outside of the essential ones that disturb others directly (not disturbing them becuase thye just dont like them)) and even about strict language rules (if the point is gotten accross good enough). But with language rules and communication i do see the need of a more formal accurate way of presenting ideas. Words as it is are already fake and already a deviance from the true object they represent (ill probally write about that alot in other blogs). There are real reasons for correct grammar, bad grammar can mean a different meaning to the sentence. It is however strange how annoyed i have gotten from this bad grammar. I mean why do i get so annoyed, there are other much bigger much more important things wrong with the world, society, humans in general than bad grammar. Also it got me thinking about how I of course feel that i have good grammar and can be understood clearly generally because i have only heard things through my grammar. I do however think my grammar is closer than that teacher's to the one-universal set of strict grammar rules that each language must have. Luckily not that many people have grammar that is much lower than what i am used to and therefore i am not as easily annoyed by this. What about the people with absolutely stellar grammar, they must get terribly annoyed by me and the other 95% of english speakers that have grammar that is much much worse than theirs. I guess they probally are able to get used to eventual, or like a friend of mine don't get used to it and transfer their annoyance to you by correcting you for every minute grammar infraction. The inadequency of good grammar and lack of proper adherence to a set of strict communication rules by not only people coming out of high school but also poeple with their doctorate shows a very serious problem with our educational system and i feel severely hinders our progress.
