if english is the person's second language. It's for damn sure that they speak it better than I speak their language. I'm one of only two native english speakers in my lab, and some of the lab memebrs are much smarter than I am, even though they do not speak English as well as I do.But if it's your first language... using utterly the wrong word three times in a row is a little annoying.
I love language, and I love to hear it spoken well.
That's the 'brakes' of the game; I think I'll put the 'breaks' on and go to bed.
You've started something, John...
