Sharpen You're Your Grammar Skill's Skills!

How does do good grammar skills help we us as people? Being that Since I used to teach english English, I've drove driven people crazy, men and woman women alike, giving there their grammar a work out workout. Punctuation, sentence structure, and verb tenses drug drag out to infinity. With training, people can learn to gradually make alot a lot less many far fewer mistakes then than before, but how dose does good grammar give me and you you and me a better way of life? I don't think it should be for it's its own sake, but rather a hole whole mindset that you operate with. This mindset is one of respect for one's language, and a of distaste for slovenly communication. You can always choose to improve yourself, and to begin, you you'd better be your own worst critic, and not other people's!

I only found 24, though if somebody were being overnice and following the "no prepositions at the end of a sentence" pseudo-rule, they would write "mindset with which you operate." Also, the last sentence could be split after "yourself" to avoid being a run-on sentence.  

My single contribution to this excellent thread.

I can't find any fresh ones.  Some of these are artificial and improbable: who today would write '...skills help we'?

Someone studying English as a second language certainly would. My students do all the time. "Us", "them", "we", "they" etc are all commonly confused.

For anyone who felt like tearing their hair out trying to read this, I read this type of stuff at least every second day. People need help with resumes, essays, the grammar work I assign them... and this sort of thing comes up all the time. It doesn't make me cringe anymore. I just select a text tool in a different colour and go over it with a fine tooth comb. And then I often make them write it over again, so they can see the differences.

I actually used this exercise for one of my younger students, he LOVES paragraph correction stuff, and it went over very well. He loved seeing that his spelling and grammar were far better.

True, good point.  I was only thinking about native speakers, though I have taught English in German schools.

In my experience, this text is just a little below average grammar usage. Meh.

I couldn't finish reading it.  I was skirting dangerously close to opening a vein just to end the torture.

Personal pet peeve that drives me insane when reading MMO chat is a person typing "casted" for the past tense of "cast".  I don't know why but the hair on the back of my neck stands up when I see that.

I know that it's an irregular verb and I should cut everyone some slack. 

But it drives me nuts.
