How do you feel when someone corrects your grammar?

[fiercerunner]

There are some grammar mistakes that really should be corrected. No one in their twenties should be saying "brung" instead of "brought." That being said, it seems like 99% of the human population gets extremely offended when they spot a "Grammar Nazi," even if that person is being nice about the correction.

How do you feel about it? For me, I don't mind it when I get corrected because I want to know if I'm making a mistake.

Negative criticism may sounds harsh, but it builds up one's character to be better. If someone told you "Dude, your grammar sucks!", just suck it up and accept it. Something like this won't come from nowhere. Obviously someone will notice how you are horrible at delivering a message, so they would make a note at your grammar structures that they need polishing.

If anyone gonna say "You're grammar Nazi" or "This is the Internet", these are nothing but lame excuse to overlook flaws you might never fix for your sake. You just refuse to develop your character. Stick to a 12 years old mind-set.

Thank God such forums have the "Ignore" feature.

I'll admit, I'm a Grammar Nazi myself, lmao.
Anyway, if someone was genuinely correcting me, I'd simply thank them

Correction: They just shout at your grammatical mistake, but never point out at what/where is the mistake.

Someone can't even use "Present Simple" properly.
