  1. “Reading and comprehension” is not the same thing as “reading comprehension.”

    You have let us all down sir.

  2. Some of the exchanges I have on here; I beg to differ. 🤪

  3. Not possible, the stupid post election outrage meme threads told me our education system has been destroyed.

    Who should I believe!?

  4. Yet my spoken English is so much worse than the average German or Scandinavian.

    I’d casually say something like “Where do he be’s at?” and honestly, I don’t care to correct myself anymore. Just owning it at this point.

  5. That’s lies, I was involved in an accident and got no comprehension.

  6. Why can’t we be more like ~~Denmark~~ ~~Sweden~~ Ireland!

  7. I dunno, someone in one of my group chats said ‘should of’ instead of ‘should have’ and it made me lose faith in our education system.

  8. The first time I visited Ireland before moving what made the biggest impression on me was the sheer volume (hah!) of bookstores. 

  9. The Irish are best at English ,,,,,, Just let that settle in there.

    At English

  10. No stop no positively allowed. Actually no one in Ireland can read, this subs comments are fully speech to text.

  11. A good argument for unification, because I’m sure NI isn’t doing as well.

  12. That’s great.

    Almost 20% of people not being able to read at that point is still a pretty abysmal failure, though.

    The figure should be 98% plus everywhere, even allowing for those with various severe learning difficulties.

  13. There is something flawed here unless the US has made dramatic improvements to its education system.
