More Fiyah: Is Garvey a fool or an Uncle Tom?

[Jawge]

Let's see:

To be able to read intelligently, you must first be able to master the language of your country. To do this, you must be well acquainted with its grammar and the science of it. Every six months you should read over again the science of the language that you speak, so as not to forget its rules. People judge you by your writing and your speech. If you write badly and incorrectly they become prejudiced toward your intelligence, and if you speak badly and incorrectly those who hear you become disgusted and will not pay much attention to you but in their hearts laugh after you. A leader who is to teach men and present any fact of truth to man must first be learned in his subject.


Jawge: I now await the fine minds of the site to discuss the above. I am the Eternal learner, waiting and thirsting for knowledge. Thanks.

[Jawge]

Okay fair enough. Now please educate
me on the role that patios would play (since you support the teaching of English) in Ja's schools. Also, while you are at it; can you show me where patios would fit in with what Garvey said in the above? Thanks.

I wonder if Jawge formally studied patois it would improve his comprehension and reasoning skills? There must be some way we can intervene. Jawge don't come across as a dunce, but for some reason...

[Gamma]

he doesn't? i mean ...yeah yeah you're right mo.....sometimes people are intorduced to things that they know has some academic value and while they can REPEAT it they cannot digest it so as to formulate it in a manner which shows that they understand it.
