[internet](http://oshiete.goo.ne.jp/qa/4265690.html) but could not come up
with a satisfactory answer, or at least well related to my case (though I
might have missed that point).

Simply, the other day a quite old lady (over 70 I think) asked me 「楽しいでした？」 at
the end of a shodou class.

My question is, is this just a polite version of 「楽しかった？」that somehow confuses
me? In such case would that be more polite than 「楽しかったですか」?

Or is it just a way older people might talk sometimes? At the moment I heard
it my first thought was whether she thought I could not speak Japanese and put
it in a wrong but easy to understand form (as if she thought I might not know
how to conjugate an いーadjective properly).

Maybe it's just a silly question but right there on the spot it confused me a
bit and I would like some clarifications. Thanks.

conjugations adjectives
「楽しいでした？」- clarifications about this conjugation
I think it pays to bear in mind that people who speak a language at a native
level often use the language in ways that we would consider as improper, on a
grammatical level(e.g. how someone could be saying the most profound things,
but wrt it ot lyk dis, bcuz dis is hw dey grw up wrtng out their thoughts n
feelings). Grammar is still important, but as long as you can understand them,
everything else is gravy

answer
My assumption is that she asked 楽しいでしたか？ In that case, it might sound natural,
depending on the context.
