You sound like a broken record, Om - same ole same ole stories.
Tell us about how you were seduced by a New York judge.
U may be hopelessly crazy,
but u can be mildly humorous. I got a chuckle out of that.

Another problem with attempts at phonetic spelling is differences of dialect,
and deciding which to use as the basis of a phonetic spelling.
Thay shud use the most popular one; fortunately, that 's mine.

Not at all, Sig. You advanced some of these nonsense prescriptions before and you've been swatted down for them.

Go thru your replies, Om, and see in how many you've addressed the language/grammar issue. Nary a one.

@oristarA,
It looks as though your question has been answered.

Can I just point out that the normal way of asking this question in English would be to say "How can I express this properly".

That's the infinitive form of the verb 'be'.
