Am i supposed to be able to follow this????? My grammer is ok in english, and stinks in hebrew, my israeli friends are obbsessed with hebrew grammer, but when i talk they say they dont mind, as long as they can figure out around what im trying to say…..shouldnt it be the same i english?????

Why torture the poor high school girls who cant follow the grammer fight????? Haifagirl, were you this obbesssed in english grammer before you came to israel?????

1) Yes, you are supposed to be able to follow this. It’s in English.

2) Maybe your “grammer” is okay, but your grammar stinks–in English. (By the way, names of languages are capitalized.)

3) “Figure out around”? What does that mean?

4) I was obsessed with correct grammar from the time I was able to speak. You can ask the people I grew up with who hated being corrected by a fellow 6-year-old. (I thank my parents for making sure I spoke properly so I didn’t grow up to sound like a total ignoramus. I frequently wonder why other parents don’t care enough about their children to teach them to speak properly.)

5) I wish you a refuah shleimah. I see you must have hurt your fingers as you are unable to use the shift key, and you keep getting stuck on the question mark.
