Well as a Yank I must confess; Mein English ist nicht so gut und mein Deutsch is sehr schlecht aber mein Griechisch is besser.

Most people do not care about poor grammer or spelling unless they are in a debate with you and are losing that deabte. Then they condesend to anything to divert from their weak argument.
It is a sure sign of weakness!!!

Well, with "other" a close second to English perhaps we should start this over and add a few more to get a guage on these other tonques.
Lets add Greek, Hebrew, Swedish and Finnish and a few others that are suggested.

I suppose everyone who has so far responded realises that this poll is highly biased by being opened while Europe is awake?

Expect to be deluged by "English" when North America wakes up. This is, after all, an American site.

However, since there *are* many contributors to this forum whose native language is not English, I consider it essential that everyone spells properly. Hard enough to follow a foreign language anyway, without the difficulty that the words cannot be found in a dictionary.

I can always make a good guess as to the age of the writers in this forum, by how well/badly they spell.

It's grammar

I grind my teeth every time I see poor spelling and grammar, especially when the person posting is from Britain or America. On the other hand I am very forgiving when the poster does not speak English as his native language. I fight temptation every day, and wanting to correct people has nothing to do with winning or losing arguments...I'm just a jerk (but I try to hide it).
