yes, that always happens to me, because i am in a hurry to respond lest my insights would leave me! LOL But on the serious side, wrong grammar and wrong spelling isn't a big deal in the discussions. What's important is you are able to convey what your opinions or advises are.

Hello Purple, Don't worry about that as per rules of Mylot no one should condemn you if you have a wrong grammar besides no one is perfect so it will not be a big deal here becoz lot of Mylotters came from different country, that is also my worries before becoz my grammar is not good. :) Just enjoy Mylot, have fun, gain a friends and especially have earnings :).

i always make sure that i check every post and responses that i make before i post them because i feel really bad if i post something with lots of spelling and grammatical errors... but we are just human beings and nobody is perfect... so making a little bit of mistakes here and there every now and then should be acceptable... :-) take care and have a nice day...

I think everyone understands this one. All it takes is a slip of a key or thinking faster than you type then errors. As long as the message can be understood I'm OK! Of course then there are those wonderful people who comment not in their own language. Even though they make a few mistakes, I think it is wonderful they communicate with the rest of us. In conclusion, make your mistakes, come as you are, I'll love you anyway!!

Yeah, I've experienced that. I've been careful nowadays so the grammar and spellings won't have errors. We should be careful when posting in a discussion.

I usually proofread what I write but there are times I see some slips especially when I'm in a hurry or excited to post. So now I always say to myself to slow down and be easy on that post button.

Yes. Discussions will be much pleasurable to read if everyone would take proofreading into practice.

ahhaah! yes it happened to me because I don't review my postings or comment I just typed it and then press send or post. Hmm I think it is not really important here in mylot.

You know, I'm sure it is not easy getting all the grammar right when English is not your first language. English has some crazy spelling and grammar! Don't feel too bad though, because many native speakers of English mess up spelling and grammar all the time. It is kind of embarrassing that so many English speakers can't write correctly in their own language, but it happens all the time. There are probably more people who do not write correctly than people who do. I think it is partially because we do not learn very much about grammar in school. It seems that in other countries, they teach children much more about grammar and language. They teach some grammar to kids here, but just when you are very young and by the time you are in college, no one bothers to teach it anymore. Good for you though for keeping an eye out for mistakes! It is very important to speak and write as well as you can so you can make a good impression on others.
