Oh, Engrish

I'm starting to clean out my apartment. And in the process, I'm finding scraps of paper where I've scrawled some of my students' prized Engrish. Seeing Japanese kids produce writing based on their own experiences is pretty rare. Let's enjoying:

"We was going to Daiyu 8. We was bike going to Daiyu 8. We was watching wood after going to bike Motomiya 2nd J.H.S. I had a good time." (Hiroto)

"I got up early today. Because I pulled weeds in school. I pulled weeds very hard so I got tired. After that, I went to fields full as asparagus with my mother. We pulled asparagus. I liked it. So I was happy. And I played with Moka and Pidian. They are very cute. I had a good time."

"That day was sports day. But it was called off because of heavy rain. I was gently in the home. I wrote a novel for three hours." (Moe)

"We had soccer games against Atami JHs. My friend is the best member."
