    For me, the test was okayish - i didn't had any problems answering the questions ... the questions were straight forward, and not really different withthe questions miss sarada asks us in class. :) but i guess i have to wait and see if my answers actually answers the question.. :)

    I think the 4 aspects regarding the features of malaysian english which are Syntax, Phonology (as Miss Sarada said), Vocabulary and Different Meanings with UK/US English .. :)

    I tough the questions were easy but the answers difficult ;-P At first I thought I was the only one who didn't get the '4 aspects' until everyone started asking. I guess we all learnt about MyE through Wikipedia but we didn't realize the Phonology etc were the 'aspects'.

    For the other questions I say the answers can be difficult because, I feel besides the questions about definitions, the answers can be as easy or as difficult as we choose to make it; eg we can give simple class examples which is straightforward and guaranteed correct or new ones based on our own research / extra reading which is riskier (therefore may be wrong answer) because it was not discusses in class.

    That said, my main concern during exams is that I have the memory span of a Gardenia Bread; expiry date within days of usage. Hence I find that when I write my answer I think I'm correct but when I go back to check, I find I may have jumble up my facts. Sigh!

    It was a horrible test for me in my entire because i did not about the First and Second language acquisition. I might get a low mark for that test. Oh my god,,I thought that the quiz topics will be ask in that test:( I totally misunderstood at the time Mrs Sarada spreads a hint for that test:(
