English skills

This is supposed to be “skip to my lou,” I think. Yes, although the Chinese go through 7 years of English by the time they begin college, this is the result. Another fine example would be when we were both walking behind a group of girls. One of the girls had the word “shit” in big letters written on the back of her shirt. One of the male students gave himself the English name of “c---” (I’m sure you can figure it out.) Most of the young people I see walking on the streets have English words on their shirts, especially the girls. However, most of it makes no sense.

To be fair, they learn more British English than American, and "c---" means friend in certain Northern/Scotish slangs...
