people's grammar is horrendous nowadays

 im not perfect at grammar myself and ill write lazily without adding the proper apostrophes, commas, or capitalization in many posts like this one but why are so many people's grammar skills in general so bad these days😭 the amount of people who dont know the difference between all the "theirs" and "yours" is actually insane. ive even seen adults & teachers not using the right "your" before like .. how? also the rise of "could of, should of," anything like that is absurd. it pmo fr do teenagers really read that little nowadays to not know its could've?? why are native english speakers the worst at grammar ESL people are better than y'all... 

also ive been seeing this more recently, people will add a random comma after but for no reason. like "but, she didnt like it" omgg why are you adding unnecessary commas in your published writing. where did this come from? 

also people who dont know the difference between:

peaked/peeked/piqued

loose/lose

bawled/balled

weary/wary 

etc. it actually surprises me when i see posts online where people know the difference between all these points now 💀 please at least know the difference between the different yours and theirs im begging.... its really not that hard man you have no excuse not to know if youre a native english speaker ngl unless you have dyslexia or something

  1. tbh this was also a thing ive been thinking abt kinda
    like why are americans just allergic to learning
    i know the education system sucks but like even if it was fixed and there is no more grading system americans still wouldnt want to learn anything

    also i remember being esol even though i literally spoke/wrote better english than all of my classmates 💀

    1. the american education system is failing so many people💔 i see so many teachers complaining about how bad kids are at learning now. my classmates in english honors literally got a 3rd grade reading level bc they didnt wanna take the time to do their test properly im sobbing

      i remember you going to esol too i never understood why you had to take it. it really sucks when youre not 100% white/american cuz they dont believe youre good at english. i had to take a lengthy test to prove i could read/speak/write english when i got to this state 💀

    3. tbh i think americans are just dumb like korea got a way worse education system literally treating the students as slaves and they do better academically than us

      also american individualism and freedom of rights probably make these kids think they dont need to learn at all

    4. yeah.. theres a lot more pressure to do well in korea than america. idk if its just bc theyre dumb but in the usa students think they dont have to put much effort into learning bc the system does everything it can to make sure students pass into the next grade (even when their teachers disagree) cuz they dont wanna look bad or wtvr. which causes the students to do even worse and they never catch up bc they shouldve been held back instead

      and unfortunately its true that ppl are brainrotted from having devices too young and being addicts so they have more issues learning 💔
