You are assuming that unusual sentence forms must be wrong...

Authored by: mtew on Tuesday, April 30 2013 @ 11:40 PM EDT

While some of the Wikapedia articles are written in English
by non-English speakers and the result is 'interesting',
being able to decipher that kind of text would improve the
value of search results.

I think the argument against including the extra flexibility
demonstrates chauvinism more than reason.

we also have the problem of "what do you mean by English?"

Do you mean the language spoken by the English people, or do you mean Strine, or
American (usually referred to by Americans as "English"), or even
things like Pidgin?

Of course, when you add things like Mancunian, or Scouse, or Scots in its
various forms such as Glaswegian, thinks get really messy :-) Don't get your
keks in a twist ...

Cheers,
Wol
