I remember when I was younger we went to our rich cousin’s house and I was hanging out with the son in his room who was a lot older…and i had playfully used “gooder” in a sentence, and that nigga snobbishly told me there was no such thing as “gooder”…and that was one of the times in my my life I couldn’t bull shit a smart ass comeback…
But my petty ass is about to call him up after all these years and be like “UHHHHMMM YEEEAA BUUUTT THAT’S ONLY BECAUSE “GOOD” IS AN IRREGULAR ADJECTIVE HOWEVER, AS FAR AS LANGUAGE AQUISTION IS CONCERNED, RESEARCH FROM THE WUG TEST SUGGEST THAT I WAS STILL DEMONSTRATING ACCURATE PROFICIENCY IN THE LANGUAGE BY KNOWING TO ADD “-ER” TO AN ADJECTIVE OF THE REGULAR FORM AS THAT IS THE PROPER AND GRAMMATICAL STRUCTURE
NOT TO MENTION THE FACT THAT DESPITE THE WORD I USED BEING UNGRAMMTICAL YOU WERE STILL ABLE TO RECEIVE THE INTENDED MESSAGE I WAS SENDING WHICH IS ONE OF THE BASIC FUCKING FOUNDATIONS OF LANGUAGE ALSO REGARDING THE SOCIO-LINGUISTIC PRESCRIPTIVIST VIEW POINT, THE WAY A PERSON SPEAKS DOES NOT DETERMINE THEIR INTELLIGENCE AN IDEA THAT IS A BYPRODUCT OF LANGUAGE PRESTIGE WHICH IS WHY YOU FELT IT NOBLE TO CORRECT ME YOU JACKASS, BUT AS LONG AS YOU UNDERSTOOD ME, WHICH YOU DID! I CAN ADD “-ER” TO WHATEVER THE FUCK I WANT NIGG -ER!”
