Cate, you are showing ignorance, stubborn wilfulness, or poor pronunciation skillsCate wrote:Dear 1 2 3 4 5 6,
you can't count, kindly
bugger off. Love,
Cate

the last line remains
des·ti·na·tion: far
des-ti-na-ti-on far = 6 syllables. The word "destination" is not pronounced by any educated person as "destinashun"

Dear Al i ce, I do not think you understand the concept of 'bugger off. Please research/ write a paper in regards to and then respond (or more accurately don't respond) with the appropriate behaviour.
much tolerance,
Cate

Re: The Infinite Haiku
Dear Geoffrey, Haiku's are a particular form demanding specific numbers of syllables in each line. Your effort is invalid because on its proper pronunciation "so shaft me quickly" is 6 syllables, not 5.Geoffrey wrote:Sideways wrote:

don't even write me...
...(actually, if I could have, syllable wise, I'd have written "you don't even write me"...) but the line stays as is, for haiku purposes...
