I may not be the biggest Grammar Nazi myself. But even without going overboard, people need to be more aware of what kind of image of themselves they are portraying to the rest of the world, if their message is peppered with poor grammar. Grammarly is a good tool to have actually. It does a lot more than your regular autocorrelation would pick on. Thank you Natella

In reply to K.Asgari. I agree, texting cannot be held to the same standards as “actual” writing, especially if it’s used as a casual method of staying in touch with friends and family. But those who rely on text for business correspondence may need to bring it up a notch I believe.

In reply to Vanessa. I try to find a diplomatic way of bringing up to people their poor grammar.

I would’t call myself a grammar Nazi. And I believe when you are sending a quick text some minor misspelling is an inevitable part of the process. But the way some people spell in their actual writing is a complete disaster. You are simply struggling to understand what they mean.

I believe I am a grammar nazi as well. Can’t help noticing grammar errors wherever they exist. Once I saw it, I must correct it. 🙂 It is true though that not everyone takes it well.
