Would you date someone with poor English?

If they can't speak proper English and some communication problems arise.
I'm a grammar nazi and it annoys me sometimes if people don't use proper grammar. So i may find it difficult 😂

[StephenCF]

I’m probably being too much of a grammar Nazi here, but what made me chuckle was your grammar rant — all while using the small “I” in the closing sentence of your subtext 😂

But to answer your question, no I wouldn’t. I wouldn’t be keen on dating someone who typed messages poorly (I was in a long-distance relationship with a girl who had mediocre typing skills, even though she aspired to be a writer like I did, and dealing with a whole year of near-daily messages like this drove me mad in the long run, even something as trivial as writing my name with a small “S”) 😡 I know even some of the best girls can type like this nowadays, but I still know some who don’t, & THEY’RE the ones I hope to be romantically involved with one day

[curiousnorway]

Yes, because it's not my first language. As long that person speaks perfectly and good Norwegian, I'm happy. My English pronunciation also sucks, so we would be in the same boat then.

[ILoveAnime]

If we didn't speak in English regularly yes (like, if it had only been a school subject, non-native English speaker). Now, a native English speaker? Hell no

[Larkyy]

Yes, but I'd correct them often. I'm very passionate about language.

If they spoke my language though, English wouldn't be a necessity

[killer4212]

What's your language?

[Larkyy]

Icelandic

[Pink2000]

I dated a Mexican who didn’t speak English that well. I don’t think he was born here.

[Noodlee]

I could if we're able to communicate. He can always learn 😊

[InTimoreDei]

If you can't use "your, you're, you are" and "they're, their, there" properly then I won't give you any attention at all. It's one of my main pet peeves. A LOT of English speakers on here keep making those mistakes. It's incredibly annoying and a turn off it a girl does it.

[OtakuNeko666]

I would be a bit frustrated for poor communication... But I'll try to teach/correct them?
If they're a native English speaker, no.

[unKN1GHTed]

As long as they speak German or English. I live in the UK now, but when i first arrived it was tiring always having to speak English.

[weirdoweirdo]

Well I'm dating Swedish people so.. It doesn't really matter to me because I'm Swedish and I speak English like almost fluently so it won't be a problem while travelling or anything.

[inmensus]

If it wasn't their first language, sure. If it is, then no. Same rule applies for Spanish, which is my first language...

[genericname85]

i mean they would be able to talk german properly if not English but communication is important and if they're super bad, that will be a problem.

[name_is_eric]

English is not my first language either, nor do I live in an English speaking country. Do yes I would.

[ZeussLightningBolt]

No way! That's one of my biggest pet peeves.

[Turkishkurd]

Of course i would

[IkilledCupid_]

No..
