First of all,

thank you for clicking my question link

I'm a student from Taiwan,

and I got some problem with the lyric of the song "Just The Way You Are"
(by Bruno Mars) :



And it�s so it�s so
Sad to think that she don�t see what I see



I think the �She don�t� made a grammar error.

Is it usual for Foreign songs or just a exception?

Or maybe, the grammar is alright?

Thank you!

hey minnike hope u r doing good abt ur question yes it is a grammar error but it is usual in these kind of songs GOD bless

[minnieke]

So, is it ok to use these kind of grammar error in a presentation?

how about talking to boss?

thank you for answering me;)

np no it is inappropriate to use this kind of grammar specially when u r talking to someone in a formal manner. In the songs they just do that to make it rhythmic.
