Question

Should this be merged with Chris and English? --USAJAP1 23:22, 30 October 2009 (CET)

To do

  • Explain possible reasons why
  • Analyze and describe general patterns in his speech
  • Give some examples (ex. "gitar")
  • I understand the merit of giving some examples, but for the love of God, everyone stop turning this into a list page.
  • Notability criteria goes out the window as soon as you create an actual list, since every idiot and his mom starts adding shit like "he says "ol'" for "old"" or "he says "y'all" for "you all"", which millions of American English speakers do colloquially. All we need are the most common speech fuck-ups particular to Chris, with a few added examples of the most ridiculous made-up words that he's used. But seriously, do this all with prose, not a goddamn list. Llort 23:51, 26 June 2009 (CEST)
  • I was going to say something along the lines of this but Llort articulated it better than I could. Seriously, "ya'll" is a just a Southern thing, same with "'ol'" and the like. The made up word stuff should go with CWC-isms, in the form of a glossary of sorts. --Champthom 00:14, 27 June 2009 (CEST)
  • I think I'll give prose-ing the list a whirl. Wish me luck. Ensign disposable 10:41, 29 June 2009 (CEST)
  • Update: Kept the list for now, but I transcribed most of the important stuff. I think the list would have its use--editing out the CWC-isms and Southern slang would leave us with examples of when Chris mangles the language accidentally. ...Hm, do we have a page on Chris's use of Spanish, yet? I bet he's just about as fluent with that as with English, i.e. barely if at all. Ensign disposable 11:17, 29 June 2009 (CEST)
  • I think the prose is great. Quite frankly, I think the list could be eliminated entirely because of it. The list became far too long very quickly, and is going into thing such as 'an' for 'and', which is common at least across the vast majority of the US and doesn't need to be mentioned at all. The page would benefit a lot from its removal. --LizardPie 12:00, 29 June 2009 (CEST)
  • Wow. Bravo, Ensign! It really seems like you covered everything, so I gave the Glossary list a swick kick to da curb. Now, all that's left to be done is for someone to kind of meld the first and second halves of the article together (possibly by just removing a bunch of stuff, for the most part), because the two are largely redundant to each other now.

Can't he pronounce x's?

I know this is probably really old and obvious, but I heard him pronounce six as "siss" for the first time. And srsly, where did that come from? I've never heard someone mispronounce "six" like that. Is that a southern thing or a retard thing? Sauerkraut131 02:59, 10 June 2009 (CEST)

I'm probably guessing it's a retard thing, considering how often he mispronounces things. --APBoy 04:37, 10 June 2009 (CEST)
  • he pronounces "x" as "ts" which sometimes comes out as a "ss" sound (as in "sissty") or "ts" (pronounced like in "puts", as in "hetsbots"). i think it's just him being a retard --cogsdev/vedsgoc 20:36, 26 June 2009 (CEST)
Can he pronounce the word "eggs", "hacks", "rocks", or "makes"? They involve the same sounds associated with the letter X. If he can, then he's just being retarded about the letter X. --SeventhBase 06:34, 30 July 2010 (UTC)

Chris's Grammar

It's pretty obvious to everyone Chris's attempts at speaking anything past a 1st grade level sentence sound like an ESL student from the Orient trying to sound smart. His Spanish is even worse. Should his deficiencies in grammar (Both in typed/written and spoken word) be covered in a separate article, or would this one suffice? I've noticed some patterns in his capitalization, for example, that merit a mention, but I'm not sure where to put it. Dormiebasne 02:46, 26 July 2009 (CEST)

  • I tried typing something about his writing patterns in here. I'm wondering if this is the right place for it. If it isn't, somebody make an article on it. If it is, somebody improve it, cause I did a shit job of it. LStaley416 19:00, 23 September 2009 (CEST)

Shrill Voice

Shouldn't this mention Chris's high pitched voice? Jive Pirate 9:51, 3 September 2009 (CEST)

  • I'm working on a section on this. Jive Pirate 11:27, 5 September 2009 (CEST)

Moved some stuff...

I deleted the sections about like his writing and slang and incorporated it into the "Chris and English" article, since I figured this article was more about his actual verbal speech impediment than his grasp on the English language. I'll revert shit if that seems like a retarded idea. Ayvuir 15:35, 27 October 2009 (CET)

I think it's a good idea. --Beat 16:05, 27 October 2009 (CET)
Makes perfect sense. Griffintown 16:24, 27 October 2009 (CET)
