Read to assimilate and not to respond. I see no context where the use of “majority” is concerned. And in fact, i dare say, majority. The population of Africa is 1,373,486,524 respectively. Summing the percentage of each country /can/ be determined as majority. I speak from both experience and research.

Studies have shown Prevalence of depression is 41.7% and 26.6% among the Ghanaian and Nigerian cohorts, respectively. The prevalence rate of depressive symptomatology of small rural based studies show 18%5 and a rate of depression of 27% in South Africa. In Egypt, depressive symptoms is 28.6% and that of depressive disorders is 11.3%. In Ethiopia, nearly 15% of the global population on average suffer from depression /at least/ once in their lives. In Sudan, the prevalence of depression is 47.5%. I could go on but it is rather a waste of time on a close minded individual who is drenched in the idealism of know it all.

Miss ma’am, writing is about communication, understanding, learning and expression. Your personal ideology of what a good writing is, is your personal problem and doesn’t determine a global perspective of “good writing”. I am learned and words exist to be used. I can choose whichever i desire to use, it’s on you if you choose to limit your mental knowledge space.

In conclusion, stay pressed x.
