As an ESL you should avoid writing in English altogether and I say that as an ESL myself. You are never going to sound natural to even the dumbest EFLs and your phrases will always seem to them a little out of place. Just stick to your part of the Internet and try not to venture to EFL places unless you want to humiliate yourself. You are never going to make it in English unless you've been immersed in it from a very young age like Nabokov or have a godly amount of self-determination like Conrad
The real tell besides for saxon word order that scandis have little problem with is completely fricking up how you invert and form a question, and the periphrastic Do.
People who speak English as their first language often make mistakes with grammar and spelling. You can achieve a better mastery of the English language than people who speak it as their primary language.
I would not worry about the judgment and insults of bitter anons who just want to make you insecure, which apparently they have succeeded in doing by using "ESL" as a dumb and low effort insult.
Your English is fine, it is actually better than what passes in a casual or professional context. Think about how the New York Times is written at a tenth grade reading level. You take English more seriously than most, what you lack is self-confidence really.
Start making the mistakes that native speakers make > use it's instead of its > there instead of their > apostrophes in plural words ending in S > should of instead of should've > use effect instead of affect
You get the point
I have two Radiohead CDs -> correct
I have two Radiohead CD's -> incorrect
The apostrophe is only added to plurals to avoid confusion between different acronyms (in the sentence it's obvious one is talking about compact-discs).
If you do not know the plural of a word, do not tag on an 's'. Just find another way to denote its puralism.
I've heard so many indians make this mistake. >You have three mails today, anon
Just look at a new lemma each day, and try to work out the usage of its inflections for each scenario. You just need to expose yourself to new words, through reading, listening, watching, or talking.
>overusing "very"
>do the needful
>ending your sentence with though (sometimes it makes sense, though)
thoughbeit
If I ever heard anybody use thoughever in real life I think I would cum.
though is literally just an english modal particle, though. no one gets all up in arms when i say ja, doch, aber, or mal.
Lose vs. loose
'Touristic' isn't a word

See what I mean? Thanks for the correction.

?
you should use 'though' at the end of your sentences more often though
Using though at the start of your sentence versus the end is the same difference between 110IQ and 80IQ.
