How to use "as long so".

[Sonia*]

Hello Alan sir,

"Siegfried says it's not so important how well you speak a language as long so you try to communicate".

kindly make me clear the meaning of "as long so" in this sentence.In which type of situations can we use "as long so"? Is there any other phrase that can be used at the place of "as long so"?

Thanks a million sir.

It is an error of some kind, Sonia– there is no such English phrase. It should read 'as long as' or 'so long as'.

Thanks a lot sir.

I think, It should be corrected as soon as possible to avoid further misunderstandings as million of students read and practise on this site.

Thanks

I've never heard of that before either. People would normally say "as long as" or "so long as."

Ex:

I would go with you to the store "as long as" your brother stays home to watch the dogs.

Hope this helps.

I still need you to give me a link to where the sentence is on this site, Sonia. If I can't find it, I can't fix it. Thanks.

I think it should be "so long as"- not "as long so".

[Mister Micawber]

What is it supposed to mean?

This error comes from this article:
http://www.english-test.net/esl/lesson-plans/learning_english.html - 13th line.

Thanks, Violino. It seems to have been fixed now.

“so long so wrong” is a not construction like “the sooner the better”, V.
