It seems like people are just being lazy with their typing around here lately. It's obvious when someone is struggling with a language barrier, and that's fine, but some EFLs are clearly not trying. It only takes a moment to look it over people. I'm not saying everyone needs perfect spelling and grammar. I'm just saying people should read over their posts and make sure they typed words that at least sound like what they are trying to say, and those words are in the right order. It's not that hard. |

EFL most commonly refers to English as a Foreign Language. |

"English as a First Language," I believe. EDIT: Ok, I guess it could be either. |

Also, let me add to this: I hate when people misspell or truncate the names of toys in their want lists. If you can't take the time to figure out the name of that toy that you desperately need, why should anyone help you track it down? |

So many people make that mistake, but when you're typing fast and just want to get the thought out, it's easy to miss. You can all stop shaking your fists and canes now

EFL = English as a First Language (aka Standard British English) ESL = English as a Second Language (i.e. American English etc.) |

I just don't understand the purpose or point of purposely trying to misspell a word. For instance, when people write.."dood" instead of dude. I don't understand why people do that. The one thing that does drive me nuts is the current "z" craze. TOYZ!
