How important is it to you?
Sometimes when I have E crawling all over me I won't use capitals or punctuate properly but, on the whole, grammar is really important to me. I get really irritated by emails, texts, facebook status' written in some other language. I got a letter from HSBC the other week which was pretty god damn awful... I might have sent the letter back corrected in red pen accompanied by another letter asking them to write to me in English
My cousin is 15 and all I ever get from her is "hi bbz" and " what u bin up 2"- she never uses ? or , or . or '- she just starts a new paragraph instead. It worries me that she actually doesn't know how to compose a sentence properly I'm not being pernickity but I'd love to see how she writes at school. I've never written like that- I use predictive text when I text someone so have to put the right punctuation in.
Also There, Their and They're... It irritates the hell out of me when I read it in the wrong context
SO how important is 'proper' grammar to you... or are you billingual and able to understand da txt spk?
