Why aren't people on here talking English.?

people don't TALK english here, they type english words. don't think they type right words in the wrong order as typed by the above answerers... they type in informal english, misspellings, abbreviations, shortcuts, anything to save time as long as the message gets across...
reasons could be they're learning english, brain tired, just a mistake, or a bad habit... just ignor these questions/answers if they irritate you, k? no harm done, really! :D

Here is a question with the words in the 'right' order:
Up to what was the boy who brought up the book to out of which I didn't want to be read?
It means:
What was the boy who brought the book I didn't want to be read to out of up up to?

people are speaking English but not proper English, hardly anyone speaks proper English anymore.
and people use computers so much that they get faster in typing as often misspell words.
and they probably don't use the spell check either

As that master of the English language, Winston Churchill, once said, 'up with this I will not put'.

Maybe you entered into a subrealm and didn't notice it. Try going back to sleep and waking up again maybe you will wake up in the right realm again.

Some are just plain illiterate and proud of it.
Some are non-English-speakers who write things like "What means this words?"

Because they are trying to write English. Many do not have English as their native tongue.
