Excuse me. This is my first post but I have read many messages here before.
English is not my natural language. I do speak and write four others, mainly Asian languages. I think most of the writers here are from the United States where English is still the official language. I also think there are many examples where people write messages with really bad grammar, spelling and rules. When we learn English our teachers told us what was the correct way to use the language. I think all people who learn English after their own langauge expect that natural English speakers will have at least as good knowledge as we have.
When I do not understand a message from someone in the United States I have to do a lot of checking. It may be I do not understand because my English knowledge is not good enough, or it may be because the writer is lazy or careless and writes his message very badly. Sometimes I can very easily understand someone from China or Brazil if they write in English because like me they have been taught the rules by their teachers.
Please, it would help all the readers who are not natural English speakers if you could write your messages taking care of the rules.
Thank you all.
