I find that sentence alone hard to parse, and you expect me to understand several paragraphs of your typing? It's not only punctuation/grammar/spelling abuse; it's also sentence structure and odd modifiers. Oh, and I speak, read, and write English fluently (although not the same can be said of NetSpeak, LeetTalk, and DumbSpeak).


Be careful !

There are people out there who have actual difficulties with Language in general ! And I mean not intellectual, but because they aren't capable of it.

Have you ever heard from what we in germany call Legastheniker ? It might be a similar word in English, because it looks like it is based on a greek or latin term.

I just found that the right english term is "dyslexic".

These people aren't capable of language, maybe grammatics, because their brain isn't able to handle this. These are handicapped people.

I have seen it: In the german Forum-Part we recently had such a person. First, I was thinking: What is this ? Doesn't he know how to use the german language ? He later told use that he was one of these handicapped people.

You are now accusing people of inproper use of Language without knowing the reasons. This is highly dangerous ! Someone who is such a handicapped person like I tried to describe above might take this as an offense !
