24 bit ADC interfacing with ARM using I2S

Why do Indian contributors generically seem incapable of following punctuation with blanks?

Perhaps it's because their native written language doesn't use spaces (or capital letters) in the same way as English.

I probably assign that error less importance than a Frenchman would assign to my inability to use the proper accent mark and gender endings when I try to write French.

Just wait until you use the incorrect version (case, gender, number) of "the" to a German.

It has to do with the structure of the language. The word "India" is phonetically similar to the word "idiot", the word "student" is consonant with "stupid". Here we go, just look around.

Ja, Das ist richtig! Two years of high-school German and 1 semester in college were sufficient for my visit to the Oktoberfest in Munich. I suspect that attention to grammatical detail declines in proportion to consumption of beer.

I think I once figured out there were 27 different combinations. (or was it 36?) Many of them share the same version of "the", but that doesn't help much if you've got a brain that's wired for English which has just the one version.

English brains are so poorly wired for that sort of thing that most native English speakers regularly make mistakes when choosing betwen I/me, he/him, she/her, who/whom.

There's a very funny essay by Mark Twain on the German language.

I asked for an explanation, not a didactic flood of bias.

Good question. One would expect that they'd follow the British convention of a single space following punctuation. I was taught two spaces after the punctuation mark at the end of a sentence, but I gather that's a USian thing...

Anyone learning to type in the US was taught two spaces. I've since been told that one space is correct for typeset copy.

One solution is to use digital IOs of ARM, instead of its I2S port, to simulate the I2S protocol sequence. That is the way we used in our indicator applications. For sure it adds burden on software. I really don't know if any micro has serial port with capability of 24-bit communication.

For typeset copy, talking about "spaces" is a non sequitur. In typesetting "space" is a real quantity instead of an integer quantity. In typesetting there isn't such a thing as "one space" or "two spaces". There is just space of various sizes.

Whether or not the space between typeset sentences is larger than the space between words within a sentence is a matter of design style that varies. My impression is that larger spacing is the tradition in the US (TeX does it by default, and US government style guides specify it), but the trend seems to be towards uniform spacing.
