http://www.google.com/search?hl=en&q...oogle+Sear ch http://www.google.com/search?hl=en&s...&btnG=Se arch http://www.google.com/search?hl=en&q...=Google+Search I understand there are a lot of non-native English speakers on this board and it's not their fault. Then again, they're probably misusing the words less than those on here who speak English natively.

dude just be happy people are trying hard enough to learn the language you happen to know too, in order to speak and do business with you.
If you know what they meant, aren't you just a bit of a doorknob for caring? |

Seriously John I feel you. English is not my first language and I must admit that I'm not the best at it whether it be syntax, grammar or orthography but reading what seems to be written by a retard is pretty annoying.
Now if you have a disability that you can't control I can understand, but if you are just being dumb and lazy, I won't support you. |

I said I understand there are people here who do not speak English natively. I said it's not their fault. I said those who do speak English natively are probably bigger offenders. It wasn't an attack on people who are new to the English language. In fact I applaud them for coming here and doing business where they are not as comfortable as they would be if everyone spoke their native language. In actuality it was simply meant to be a humorous and light hearted attempt at using all three words (plus than and then I might add) in two sentences. It certainly wasn't an attack on foreigners or me trying to be a doorknob |

Also, from what I hear, kids these days turn in papers in school with SMS message and chat abbreviations/speak in them. I also believe I saw an article about a year or so ago with a professor at a university somewhere making the argument that it was the evolution of the language rather than a lack of education. |

"The Norman conquest served to enrich the English language, but the onslaught of business and academia threatens to diminish our language to the point where only vulgarities will have any fucking meaning."
-Unknown Swap out "business and academia" and insert "message boards and text messaging." I understand your pain, John. As soon as you come to the understanding that ignorant people cannot possibly fathom how harshly they are judged by their intellectual superiors due to their poor communication skills, you will begin to find their untidy scribblings less aggravating. How often can one swat the hand of the nose-picking imbecile? Eventually, you say, "Fuck it. Let the little idiot enjoy his little idiot world. Pick on, dear boy, pick on." |

Thanks, you guys reminded me!
http://www.google.com/search?hl=en&q...oogle+Searc h http://www.google.com/search?hl=en&s...&btnG=Sea rch If you're using the word 'your' to attempt to express your thoughts of what someone else is then you're certainly out of your mind! Shall we even attempt to explain that prima donna has absolutely nothing to do with coming before the singer or the Virgin Mary? |

leaving those out of it who don't speak English as a first language it is disturbing how many native English speakers from the US and Canada don't even have high school English skills. BUT it doesn't really have anything to do with intelligence, some of the worst offenders are very smart and make a fortune in this industry. it's more a social class and education thing.
when somebody says or writes 'I seen that movie' I cringe - and people pick that up from their parents, same as black people almost always say 'i wanna ax you a question' - most of them know it's not correct but it just comes out of their mouths that way because that's how they learned the language when they were young. schools are too lazy and politically correct to beat kids over the head with that stuff. back in my parents' day it was different - teachers would drive basic math and grammar into kids' heads so that even a dropout could read and write proper English and handle basic math.

Oh, man thanks for the lessons...it really makes me feel less confident.
I understand, that you only want to help us, poor foreigners, but you do it in an embarrassing way. Like: I spe-ak slow so you can un-der-stand it...Links would be enough I think, but not a whole grammar lesson. But I hope it'll be helpful for some ppl! |

It's one of people's pet peeves I must say. Particularly to people who treat things for high professionalism. The language proficiency.
Yeah, I must agree with John that it's not their fault since it's not their native language but they can always do their best to study the right use of those three. And of course not only those but other grammatical errors that they do commit. *sigh* There are some smart-aleck here who claims to know everything but do they understand where these foreigners coming from. I myself is not a native English speaker but I can speak with proficiency without committing those errors. lol *sorry for the modesty... Well anyway, i still believe that as long as people deliver their thoughts with clarity, disregarding the errors, all is fine...

With English being my second language I feel like I can speak better than people that speak English as their first language. It seems like people are speaking far more ''slanguish'' in this country than ever. And its not even because they don't speak English well I think most people are just lazy to even talk. This has become a texting world!!!
