An acquaintance of mine who was born in Long Island has taken to putting the definite article "the" in front of nouns when he speaks.
For example "I love the Google" or "In NYC I met the boyfriend" (referring to his own boyfriend)
Even though this is common in romance languages, is it proper English or an affectation?
