No it doesn't matter as long as someone can be understood. We're here to communicate with each other, not worry about the correct form of a verb

I agree with this, but it can still hurt my brain in the reading.

Yep, I get a slight twitch when I see things like 'should of' but to be honest...does it matter?

I think grammar is evolving constantly anyway, or we’d all be writing in a style from centuries ago that we’d be laughed at for using now.

Mayb txt spk innit will be the norm in decades to come

On Fab, probably not. In lots of other areas of life, I think so.

Be careful of 'niffles', they are usually found on 'the heaving beasts'.

Honestly I don't mind spelling mistakes. It's the acronyms that I find a little tedious (probably because I'm slow working them out) like FOMO etc lol.

It depends if I can understand the sentence. Spelling mistakes are fine but doe of this text speak I receive in a message, it's dire. If I have to try and decipher it then I'm not interested.

If I was recruiting an English teacher I'd be worried

I have no issue with dyslexia but I have major concerns with lazy/bad grammar, arcane abbreviations and juvenile 'text speak'.

I want to understand and be understood but find it difficult with terrible grammar.

As long as I can understand them then I am not overly concerned.

If I cannot decipher what they've written then that poses a hiccup in our communications .

It used to bother me but then I seem to mess up my spelling a lot, and am too lazy to check.
