    These are not standard English, or any dialect I recognise.

    If they are not typos, they appear to represent a dialect I don’t know; and it would appear that your conjecture as the meaning is right. What is the best way to see a human?

    What are some interesting things to know about an online college student at university?

  • Asked on May 15, 2021 in Phrases.

    In ordinary speech, “speak” does not take a direct object. You can speak the words, you can speak to somebody, but “speak words” is unusual. I would say literary. Why does this happen? I except idioms like “speak my mind” and “speak the truth”, and also the construction “Speak English”, where the language looks syntactically like a direct object, but I actually think it is a verbal modifier, like an adverb).
