Europeans think Americans are retarded because they can't type out their own primary language.

The worst grammar I've seen from people tends to be teenage girls about 15 or 16 from England/Scotland.

Whats weird, though, is typing (or trying to type) with good spelling is just as fast as text talk. I just don't get it, maybe on phones it's "faster" but it depends on the phone and the person.

On phones it is because there is a limited amount of characters allowed in one message, so people shorten down words...

It's seems strange that i'm the only that can speak a correct English language with correct grammars while i am Italian. Americans often says that Italians are idiots because they can't speak English in a correct way. No need to bother, fortunately. I am a rare exception.

Grammar should be singular. And no 's after the first "it."

Not trying to be a jerk. Just making a point.

Our economies and cultures currently doinate the world. When the Romans dominated, Latin was the world language, when Alexander ruled it was greek.

Maybee next millenium it will be Swahili, or God forbid, Dutch.

America, and some european countries are smart enough to speak one language... Learning multiple would make it much harder, and mis-communications would occur often. Though, Spanish is starting to become a language in America. Sad Mexicans are taking over.

No. I meant that American boys learned english very well like me, but they write it too fast, so they can miss a rule, sometimes. You must be slow if you wanna to be correct.

This is purely for corrective purposes. I don't mean to offend, but you asked for advice.

"edited version"


No, I meant that American boys may have learned English very well like I have(could be wrong), but they write (omitted "it") too fast. (omitted "So")They may miss a rule sometimes. You must write(omitted "be") slowly if you want to be correct.


Some things I changed are just word choice. Granted, my corrections may be wrong as grammar is not my strong suit, but I tried. Razz

But this is Internet, and in Internet you usually go very fast because you pay every minute of connection, so errors are obvious. (Sorry, i said Advice, not Advise)
