When working together, I always remark to my clients that communicating is more about CLARITY than CORRECTNESS.馃挕
The idea of how proper a language sounds when they speak stresses them because they think of how far they have to go to make it perfect!
I know it might sound controversial, but in the real world, does a grammar mistake matter? Or is it more important to you to understand a work email? Or if you understood a customer so that you can go ahead and take action?
Languages are tools to get the results you want.
馃憠 Try communicating while focusing on the results you want and not on how few mistakes you make.
馃憠 Or if you are using the exact words that you would use in your native language.
REMEMBER that we always value someone’s effort to communicate in our language much more than the mistakes they might make while trying!
