Destiny users' spelling and grammar problems
I've noticed a lot of Destiny players here on the forum who can't distinguish between there, their and they're as well as between the words patience and patients. I, myself, was not even born or have ever lived (except for 3 months in Manchester, England) in a country with English as its official language and yet I can distinguish these words. Are there really that many rednecks out there?
If you have also encountered these 2nd graders who can't even spell simple words then share your (yes your not you're) story and the words they can't spell properly here, or their grammatical errors.
EDIT; Stop being butthurt, it's 2015 and I am suggesting you learn how to spell simple words. Google exists, dictionaries exist. It can't be that hard. Seriously.

Your: shows ownership: Oh! Is this your chocolate bar? You're: contraction of you and are: You're such noob! Then: relates time: After we go to the store, then can we get some ice cream? Than: compares things: I am taller than you! Ironic: opposite of what is expected: How ironic is it that that firefighter became an arsonist? Coincidence: Things that may seem connected, but are not: Isn't it a coincidence how on my birthday, it always rains?

Or their grammatical errors.[/quote] Education & Reading Comprehension: Proof that being relatively well-versed in a language, and understanding what someone is trying to communicate, is not always a blessing. Become a teacher, make that difference in someone's grammatical future...or fuss about it online, be mocked for such fussiness, respond with frustration, be reported & move on with your life; why limit yourself, do both! Become a frustrated teacher that tries to teach others that do not want to be taught! ;-) Bottom Line: Did you understand what they were saying? 1. Yes? Life is good. 2. No? Ask for clarification. 3. Repeat as needed. Note: An extremely small amount of the populace will respond with a heart-felt "Thank you!" for pointing out grammatical errors, unless they asked, in advance, for assistance in drafting their message. Understood? Makes you feel warm & fuzzy being in the spotlight concerning the arrogant phrasing of your opinion, yes? If not, keep that in mind before criticizing another, unless you feed off the irritation of others. :-)

1 回覆I agree.. Spell how you please on the Internet, but if you're going to mix words up you're an idiot. Like I'm fine with people using "ur" but really? The examples you gave are great

14 回覆Yes! There was one troll who confused the contraction it's with the possesive its. It was rather funny when read it to myself: "a country with English as it is official language." He also had serious problems with tense "was not even born", and appropriate idiom "yet I can distinguish." As for the finer points, he showed little indication that he understood the role of the comma in seperating sub-clauses. It was as if he was punctuating with a pre buff Super Good Advice. Poor kid. On the whole his prose was entirely abominable. On top of all this, his tagging left much be desired. He left out #asinine #attention #whore.
