My first serious langrage study was Russian at 13 with enormously complicated grammar, my most recent Vietnamese with the simplest there is (no pronouns, adverbs, conjugation, declension ...). Bad grammar is almost painful to me. Scratch "almost." I'm dual-verbal and I stopped trying to be relaxed about it a long time ago.

The way I see it, every word is a contract, and if people break the contract then we cannot bridge minds at all.
