My English is nothing special... I know that. So... just wondering what you folks usually do when you see:

1. just wrong letter (never, newer, nover... etc.)
2. letters fine, or just bad tense (I have been working since 7am, I am working since 7am, etc. )
3. total nonsence (reversing light, backing-up light, recede light, etc.)

So what you will do?

...are you learning a lot from English forums? I wonder if I visited Spanish sites if I would learn Spanish faster....hmmmm....

Yes and no

words and 'special' terms: absolutely!
I will never use "mother tongue" again
spelling: Yes, yes, yes!
We have the same splelling and speaking in my my native language () so it's important practice writing, especialy doubled letters in words are horrible
speaking: of course not...
I know many new words from here, but I have never heard pronunciation... So this is (more-less) useless...
phrases (or my dictionaty found vocable 'collocations' for that.. what a word??!!! ): a lot!
I'm surpiced when are some words used... and what word is used... . really instructive
grammar: absolutely not...
No one ever told me that my tence or "prepositives" (is that correct? I'm talking about 'of, at, in, on' words.) is bad... example, my sentence: 'I have that from ebay'... But many times I saw here 'I have that of ebay' so probably using 'of' is better... but... who knows?

result:
forum here makes me think in English more fluent (more and more I don't need to look in dictionary for words), that's great. I have been here for 6 month and I feel my English is 10x better... (I hope ). I mean it's amazing practicing English and talk about cars at once . However, without some grammar knowledge it's nothing (because you never know that you wrote exactly what you want... and some kind of 'self-confidence' is gone)... so it's 75% practicing and 25% learning.

just wondering... much errors in this post?

...actually, "I have that from ebay" is more correct than "I have that of ebay," though I think "I got that from ebay" would be a better word choice.

and other than that, your entire post has excellent English, except that instead of:

"No one ever told me that my tense or "prepositives" (prepositions?)...is bad"

it should read "No one ever told me that my tense or "prepositives" (prepositions?)...are bad.

Again, other than that, you're doing better than some native English speakers I know!

Thank you! That's real compliment for me, particularly from you (English major)...
