If you are a non native English speaker come here. - Mr. Robot - Apr 3, 2018

Seriously, don't put it off any longer. It's worth taking the time to add to your browser and it will help your communication skills overall in the long term.
https://www.grammarly.com/

100% free add on that will let everyone understand you and respond better. I often avoid helping Indians as an example due to reading the threads and replies. In no way is it meant to come across offensive to you, this is an English speaking forum and we can assist you better if we can understand you better.

It's a win for you and it's a win for us.

(Might also help the younger members on here)

Just trying to help the overall performance of how users interact on threads. It's amazing how many users will help you on a thread based on how well written it is.

In this case I think it's just the type of language they are coming from usually has the biggest issue with communication. All the words are there just with missing letters or extra in some cases. Makes things difficult to read and less likely to get a proper response.

I use this all the time even though I'm confident in my writing skills. It's always nice to have reassurance when sending over important e-mails or docs. Would recommend to everyone tbh.

I am Indian and I feel insulted. I although have added this to my browser.

I've been using Grammarly for a few months now and even tho my English is intermediate/advanced it's still nice to see what my frequent mistakes are. I mostly use it when writing English homework and here on HF.

I never used anything like this before. I could give it a try.

Bro How Do I Download? I Cant Download Bro Gives Error When Downloading So Cant Download? Can U Help Will Give U 500 Rupees Thx Msg Soon

but for real, this would be super handy for those who don't speak English. It gets annoying when non-english speaking users make a thread and it's just like.. what? I might download it to see what the fuss is about.

I have used Grammarly for a long time, and it can be useful every once in a while.
