I love grammar Nazis

If I make a grammar or spelling mistake, I’d love to be corrected.

Obviously, Nazing typos (a apple, the the beach, etc.) or intentionally made errors (starting a sentence with a lowercase, saying “id” instead of “I’d”, etc.) is annoying and stupid, but when I make mistakes like “breath in”, “immigrate from”, “alot”, “this will effect the economy”, and “I’ll tell mom”, I’d love to be corrected.

PS: it’s cactuses.

I've noticed people on Lemmy are a lot more receptive to my subtle corrections. They come from a place of love, and it's nice when they're received as such. I welcome the same corrections for my own typos and errors! Let's all be less wrong together.
