I am a sucker for grammar. Can't stand bad grammar. But I must say I'm not a native English speaker, so I guess I make quite a lot of mistakes, but I will google something when I'm not sure. In my own language? ooooh, I take grammar serious. It's one of my pet peeves. But on message boards and in texts it's okay to use slang in my opinion.


pretty damn good in English!
I speak and write 3 languages -- the right way to say or write something is what I love smile


Awww thanks Aqua!
I speak 5 languages, but only write and read 3 of them properly ... see this is where I doubt whether it should be 'proper' or 'properly'

Both are gramatically correct I would think. Slight difference...
If you say "Write proper English" it puts the emphasis on what is being written, namely proper English.
or "Write English properly" puts emphasis on how to write the English...properly.
If that makes sense smile
