I decided that I would choose a sentence from one of DJM's posts in this thread and point out the grammar mistakes. Within ten seconds, I found this:

DJM


And in case you havn't noticed, this is an American website, and suprise suprise American's speak English.


1. Begins sentence with a conjunction.
2. Misspelled words:
-havn't
-suprise (X2)
3. Uses the singular possessive form of "American," as opposed to simply the plural.

Strictly speaking, your sentence doesn't make sense. What is this strange thing known as "speak English" that the American you were referring to apparently owns?

EDIT:
Here is a helpful tip to improve your use of English grammar:
1. The semicolon (;) is your friend. I like to use it when I need to join two subject-related independent clauses!

By the way, there is another structural error in DJM's sentence that I failed to bring up; however, it is closely related to "offense" #1. Can anybody catch it?
