Next someone needs to do a musical version of “English As She Is Spoke”…
To craunch the marmoset.
I am confused all yours civilities.
After the paunch comes the dance.
The rose-trees begins to button.
You shall catch cold ones.
The ears are too length.
You come too rare.
Pretty sure it was done for shits and giggles.

You’re saying the Japanese is wrong?
No, it’s actually right. Suprisingly, I’ve never had to say I have diarrhea in Japanese, and I’ve never seen anyone say it until now so I didn’t know how it was handled grammatically. Which is funny since I have a degree in the language.
I was just contrasting how other such things are handled versus this one grammatically speaking

I would find this amusing, but… well… I have a bad case of diarrhea.

Ah Japan…
Never change.
Japanese grammar police here.
は is the topic marker. が is the subject marker. When no が is present, the subject is still present, it’s just not stated explicitly. Instead, it needs to be inferred from context, rather than being assigned automatically to whatever it is that は is marking. In this case, since “I am bad diarrhea” doesn’t make any sense, the subject is most likely something else, like “my situation” or “my health” or “what my butthole is going through.”
