I am referring to people who may barely know English, or the like...do you know of any examples?

I am in the electronics business an have had dealings with many different cultures and languages.  The one thing I have been surprised with is how many people to whom English is a second( or third) language can have such great difficulty pronouncing words in English can perfectly pronoun slang and curse words.  For example, many Koreans I know cannot pronounce F's and P's correctly but can say Mother *ucker perfectly.  Interesting.

Some get too damn lazy to spell correctly and/or to type in complete words. \nSome are just that dumb and don't want to learn.\nSome of these people's primary language is not english... like me, yet, I know how to spell and I know the differences between your, you're, they're, their, its, it's, etc. AND, it's a pet peeve to see how many people missuse (sp?) those.\n\nHey, at least I know I might have misspelled that and I care enough to question myself :oP

Simple reason, they can't spell or write properly, just like you!

Lack of more intelligent word in their vocabulary.  Swearing is a sign of ignorance.

I agree that sometimes people are just in a hurry to answer, so they don't catch their mistakes. I am guilty of that many times. However, I think that many are non-English speakers, or  are just learning to speak and write English. So they are not really that familiar with the spelling of the words that they just hear on TV, songs, etc. This is a venue for them to learn.

I'm amazed of the lack of education or the lack of quality of education many of these people have...Next question for yahoo should be...pick the sentence that is correct..."I speak english well" or "i speak a good english" I can only imagine what answer people will choose

haha i hate it when people do that. i think it's because they're too ignorant to learn how to speak.

All the time.  A lot of folks use their chat language.  Also, a lot of folks are not from our country and are trying their best, know what I mean?  And then, some are just real young and hate their english teacher! LOL!

I, totally, understand your frustration. Many here use English as a second or third language or they are WAY too young or just plain ignorant. Try to be as considerate as possible with them or just ignore them.

You're obviously illiterate, so does it really matter?

I'm sure a majority are non-native english speaking.  I find that in the gaming community as well.\n\nOne girl (I answered her question not to her liking) e-mailed me a long, rude and profane message and  informed me it's slang these days and perfectly acceptable to have poor grammer, spelling and sentence structure.  She knew how to spell and if she wanted to spell it that way she would.  If so, I wonder why they bother to put spell check available here?\n\nI hope I'm dead by the time they all take over the country.....

How about something that has writing in English on it.  Or are you so worried about fitting in with your little crowd that you forgot how to speak it?

Must learn ENGLISH.  Nothing shuts me down quicker than not being able to understand someone who live in the U.S. but can not speak English!

Yes, I have noticed that too many people posting have terrible grammar and spelling skills. (I am not talking about those for whom English isn't a first language.)
