Why get upset? It's the perfect litmus test for assessing someone's intelligence knowing nothing else about them. If some mouth breather tries to enforce his political opinions on me and the nigga can't even get the right 'there', then you can just disregard all of his opinions; all completely free of guilt.

what kind of retarded grammatical mistakes do people make?

>>218819387
>perfect litmus test for assessing someone's intelligence
applicable only if you live in a country where your mother tongue is English
>>
>>218819605
while most people speak in some sort of dialect that's at least somewhat different than proper Croatian (which is actually mostly spoken in areas bordering with Serbia and Bosnia), the most common mistakes are usually related to je/ije, because we have dumb and complex grammar
eg. ocijeniti (to grade, perfective) -> ocjenjivati (to grade, imperfective)
a lot of people also can't differentiate č/ć and those are even pronounced the same

I never understood EFLs confusing these, since these aren't homophones, so they're not "spelling by ear and guesswork" on those
>>
>>218819881
You underestimate how bad the Angloid education system has become.
>>
>>218819881
i’d bet 60% of the American population couldn’t tell you what a homophone is
