in reply to What to do about grammatical errors in tutorials

I don't think that tutorials need (within reason) to be grammatically correct. If this was a soley commercial site, and only vroom and other designated people wrote up tutorials, it would be a different issue. Even then, grammatical erors don't effect the quality of the information found on PM.

    well,

    I disagree. My english is not perfect beacuse it isn't my native language.
    I learn the language on the net and from reading o'reilly books:-)

    I understand it an can read it, but I make many grammatical errors. So by reading(maybe even for a native english speaking guy) tutorials you pick up(sometimes without even thinking about it syntax and grammar.

    What is more fun, learning to write and talk better english by doing things you usaully do or by learning it in school?
    I made my choice!
