In here we have people from different country. Many people are here to practice English.

Will you correct someone's sentance or word if you are sure that it is in a wrong grammar ( or spelling)?

Well, I hope someone can correct me if I use wrong grammar or spelling. .......Otherwise I would not get improve on my English.

Actually I hope so, but unfortunately nobody correct my words or sentence in various topics..so I think my grammar is still like before I came to this site. Specially in LIFE TALK..we just build 'debate forum' , not correction for wrong words or sentences..Frown

No "in" before "here"; Countries (you should use plural form),and "improvement" because it's a noun.

And you made a mistake in spelling : sentence, not sentance

Many people, also native English sometimes make some mistakes in using grammar or spelling. So, don't worry! Step up, keep practising English and you will be successful!

They don't mention correcting other people's mistakes. If you always afraid of using wrong grammar, you will never be able to speak naturally. I know this lesson, but I'm trying, I'm a bit shy now.

Popi, you're too self-critical Laughing Even I see that your English has improved a lot (I've been meeting you from time to time on different forum-threads here only for 2 months)! 

2 all, I think, that correcting each other is more appropriate in "Ask English" than in "Life Talk". You see, here we kinda give our opinion on different serious and not very serious topics… And sometimes conversations are too hot to watch your grammar or spelling Wink As for me, I even feel here more relaxed, I mean this "fear" of wrong grammar. (So don't even try to correct this post Cool)
