Bah. Tolerance is fine, and personal attacks on someone for their use of 
a language they're still learning is bad, and nitpicking is generally 
tedious and annoying, but we should not hesitate to correct mistakes 
simply because the act is difficult. We do that for programming 
languages all the time here, and I see no reason not to do it for 
natural languages when mistakes get in the way of the actual programming 
or our communication about it.

And I'm sure attitudes towards criticism differ, but I want to know when 
(and how) I'm butchering French whenever I try it. Seems to me the same 
would apply to someone as good with English as I am with French (which 
is to say terrible.)

Proudly burning list karma on the altar of off-topic-ness,
