Me go market, find juice, say sugar free
nice! sugar free!
me take juice, me take sugar, police take me, why? hell!
Working with ESL people makes it clear that grammar isn't so important. One of my friends would say, instead of "go shopping", would say "make some shoppings". Instead of "it's time to go", he'd say "time for go". All words that started with 's' were pronounced 'ehs', as in "gas ehstation".
The other people at work soon picked those lines up, and we used them regularly amongst ourselves. I still use them decades later!
