It's used wrong, but I'm there means I am. Very obviously. And it's really not much of a leap to think that a non native English speaker wouldn't understand the nuances of contractions and would assume I'm and I am are fully interchangeable.

he means that the implied object is "wrong" as in, the phrase meant "I'm wrong" even though the word "wrong" wasn't used at the end
and is highlighting that in contrast to the bit where nibs said "you're"
honestly I've kinda been skimming the argument because trying to decide whether grammar is AI when there's a non-native speaker involved is a pain in the arse, but I feel like what teacher is saying is p clear? and also nibs clearly has a very good level of English so even if his contraction was off the question is whether he understood the implications behind it, not whether he mixed up when we'd use a contraction or not
I guess my issue with the posts from teacher isn't so much the inaccuracy of what he's saying as the excessive pedantry. Technically, his grammatical parsing of what was said is correct, but it's also meaningless as it sidesteps addressing the message.
Jeez, I thought Bingle made a spelling mistake, but I see Menalque is getting a lot of contractions himself, and since -he's a HE- he can't be having a delivery here, so what's this all about?

In post 2081, teacher wrote:Re: 2077: Accepting menalque is again entirely consistent with town skit. In 674, skit quite accurately captures Mena's mindset. Indeed, Mena said pretty much the exact same words in 1951 -- here -- and throughout. So again, I see her stating true facts and sorting in her way. Sure, it could be from scum, but there is an entire consistency that is far more likely town.
Uh given that i know this is how menalque interacts with me there's a p good chance i'd just acknowledge this and use it to pocket him as scum

you rn”. I totally would have gotten that and indeed it would make sense. But you said “you’re rn” where the only possible object is scum.
Pedit: I only have one fullscum game onsite, with nobody in this pl iirc. Normal2016.
Like i dont get this argument?
Teacher i feel like you're dragging out an argument with a non-native speaker and construing what he says as scummy

Duckling, I might be forced to turn you back into a plain wandering soldier if you refuse to actually lynch a scum being in this very own thread like teacher. After the last posts i think there's no more need to internal discussion for who we should lynch tbh.
i will be vla with limited or no internet access till tuesday night
Oh, for Jackie Chan's sake!! You are VLA on weekends, and you are VLA on the rest of the week for 2 successive weeks?? Oh, well.. can we at least have dinner on Wednesday? As that seems to be the only evening you're available!
