How Did We Come About This gramatical error by golor(m): 9:03am On Jun 13, 2016
Many at time I do agree with those,who said our education foundation is weak.......

Now let us consider this English, it has bin use in a very long time till date.

Sometime I hear people asking someone to sit down, instead of sit. Can someone actually sit up?

I do hear of stand up,instead of stand. Can someone stand down?

I do hear of wake up,instead of wake,can someone wake down?

I do hear of extreme end,instead of extreme. Is extreme not an end?

They are many more,which we were thought from childhood.
Add yours and let the suppose correction be made,so that will won't continue with such grammatical error again.

Too many spelling and use of tenses errors in your post.

And you even think Stand up is wrong ?

Please download a dictionary today tongue

RIP English

Never think something is wrong because it is not appealing to you. Never think it is always right because it is appealing to your hear.





I will suggest you STAND DOWN on the correction issue for now.
