"Of Broken English" by Danton Remoto
With all the talk about language (

), with all the criticism leveled at the English of the
winner of the Binibinang Pilipinas
(poor girl's brain must've frozen from stage fright--I know what that feels like; thanks much to
Zen In Darkness
for the
Youtube
link
), I thought it would be appropriate to scan and post the March 14, 2008 Lodestar column of
Danton Remoto
, "
Of 'Broken' English
" (as taken from
The Philippine Star
). It would also give me a chance to once more plug the book of PGS layout editor
Elbert Or
,
The More The Manyer
!
