Laugh it off :)

Alright :) This time, its certain funny usage and pronunciations of English I have come across in my Engineering life and most of these from my lecturers ! Here we go:


  1. This professor of mine, I guess she has no idea there are plurals of nouns in languages. She made a classic statement after her first lecture and said “ You all senior should guide all you junior!”


  2. Another one, whose pronunciations,lets say, are a bit different, addressed to a bunch of students carrying out a experiment that the model they were using was inappropriate for the experiment. To put it in his words - “ your model ij not shootable for the experiment!” 


  3. Here is one more : when class was constantly being disturbed by students (late-comers, coloquially!) asking permission to enter the class, this lecturer says - “In one Hour class, fifty minutes I do Come in, come it and then, I go out!!” !!! well this is a blunder!!


  4. Take this: When a student failed to come up with a right definition for a technical term, the professor (lets say Ashok Saxena?? ) was trying to tell him about the definition “ look, definition need not be technical! Explain in layman words, but in short.. For example, Define Ashok Saxena in one word?...” before he could compelte the sentence,  “ A**h****!”, came the immediate answer (as a murmur, though!) ! You can predict the reaction of the rest of class!


  5. Try this: This professor was talking about safety and insurence, etc.. He says, “ Lets say, your house is fired! But 75% of it will not get no fired!!” .. Good lord!! they speak this??!


  6. There are special ways some professors have, to say things! (just like the sentence I used now).. like: “ The item has been not purchased!” and “One thousands rupees!”  and "morning-morning, even you get bored to attend" !


  7. This one: There was a new LCD projector installed in the class and this professor puts his laptop on, which is connected to the LCD and looks at the screen and asks “you will all see?? its a bit dull, so aksed!” (its aksed and not asked! ) * rofl * 


  8. And here comes the best one: Three students causing racket in class and lecturer is pissed off. He asks these three guys to stand up and says angrily, 
    “Both of you three, get lost of my class!!” ;) 

Well, thats all for now !
Till next one!

PS:My My second post for this month was intended to be a nice, sweet, love-filled valentine special! But unfortunately, for the time being, I am too preoccupied with a lot of other things, basically academics and this post was due for a very long time, which came in very handy! But promise, before the month of romance ends, one will surely be here :)

PPS: The above mentioned incidents have happened with me! and By the way, No offence intended! After all, Its because of such things, we don't doze off in the lecutres! 

PPS: Feel free to add your experiences by commenting!
