It must be very frustrating for non-English speakers to learn these kinds of skills in a primarily-English community, especially when many native English speakers have worse grammar than some of those others…
This community seems much better in that respect than many others that I have participated in, in the past. But, it’s a good reminder to us all not to assume that everyone speaks English as their primary language.
