West African Pidgin English "I will be back soon." becomes,
"I go come small." :-) Nellie, Microsoft introduced a Canadian spelling speller in its Word programme, and it is as phony as a wedding ring on a hooker. Most of us in Canada, as you might remember, learned British spelling. We remember that in 1776 we declined the invitation of the Terrorists from Virginia to rebel against the Motherland, and our insistence on using proper English English is a residual of that sentiment.
