Disgusting Trini English

THE EDITOR: Many of the announcers and so-called talk show hosts in our popular radio programme murder the English language every day by putting singular verbs to qualify plural nouns and vice versa. A slip of the tongue is excusable now and then, but it now seems to be a common practice. If we go on at that rate, then in time to come our young people will be speaking and writing more Trini English instead of English as it is universally known. It is most disgusting.
