This Hilarious 1962 Secondary School Love Letter Is Full of Big Grammar

A humorous old-school-style love letter supposedly written by a secondary school student in Uyo in 1962 is making people laugh for its dramatic grammar and exaggerated romance. From “cardiac engine” troubles to a “medulla oblongata” that misbehaves, the writer uses elaborate expressions to describe a school crush. The letter ends with a playful plea for the girl to keep her heart reserved for him. Whether authentic or recreated for humour, it is a nostalgic reminder of the colourful love-letter style many people associate with earlier school days. Do today’s love letters still have this kind of energy?
