battery die


here's another example of how our usage of the english language has deteriorated... and this example is not a local one. in fact, it is an example that is rather "international"...

have you noticed that in the whatsapp application, there is a defaulted status that says "battery about to die"? well, in proper english usage, shouldn't it be that batteries don't die? instead, they get drained?... hmmm... tsk tsk tsk!

anyway, i posted this as an observation in my fb via my smart phone and well, that is not a very good idea cos i realized my frequent updating of my fb via my smart phone is making my battery die very fast too...

lol!
