Trying to figure out what a person means from context instead of having the precisely correct words there takes more brain power, not less.
It takes far more energy to read and think in imprecise language. That’s the whole point of precise language: you don’t have to work as hard to interpret it.
But if you don’t mind speaking in broken English, no one can force you to learn.
Dude, I would have even appreciated if you had simply told me where my title is wrong, because I do indeed prefer to speak and write proper English. Unfortunately you chose to be arrogant and pretentious about it. Maybe you should go back to reddit with that attitude, because most of us prefer a more friendly social intercourse around here.
