my kids especially my son are getting me angry whenever i speak english and found some grammatical errors, and i always tell him as far you understand each other don't bother yourself checking her grammar..but he, too makes mistakes .. are you annoyed or irritated of very strict in grammar? Or, you too are a strict grammarist/grammarer? or you don't bother yourself checking the errors as long as you understand each other? or, if it is typed like here in mylot, do you still checks his/her grammatical errorS?

Following the rules of grammer is fantastic. But to be frank, I don't much bother about it. I am not sure if my languagr is gtammatically formidable. The main purpose of language is communication. Thank you.

In my case I try my best to keep up with this grammer thing as much as I can. And I cannot do any more than that. COme on others case. Its not annoying when people use bad grammer in english but what "really" irritates me are those people who thinks they are the best so they keep correcting every one around them thinking that they are doing a great job ....unaware of the fact that they are kind of insulting someone. That really irritates me ..!! There is no right of them to inslut anyone. I know one nun (sister) in my church who have this very hard habbit. I really hate her ..!! NOw hardly anyone talks to her. Except people of her own age.

I too want to talk and write without any grammaticl errors. but I cant.I know, when there is a mistake, but I cant know how to correct it.My husband to make some grammatical mistakes, I often tell to him not like that , you have to speak like this. I think nobody can speak without any grammatical error for minimum half an hour. If we observe them keenly, we cant find the errors but experts in english can find . I think soooooooo
