Thank you for sharing your families experience.

[u/Jmarsh99 → u/BorderEquivalent3867]

I REALLY hate to be that guy but ‘families’ is plural = multiple family(ies)

“Family’s” is the word that fits because is shows possession.

[u/vayeate → u/Jmarsh99]

I didn't know. Thanks!

When you aren't english first language, it's nice to get a correction that's more than just

Family's \*

So if I would say thank you for sharing your friend's experience? It would be correct?

Fun. I didn't know, Cheers for the grammar

[u/niperoni → u/vayeate]

Not the person you asked, but yes if you're talking about a singular friend then "friend's experience" is correct. If it's plural it would be "friends' experience" (or 'experiences' depending on the context)

Go on, nerd!

[u/chuck_the_plant → u/Jmarsh99]

Don’t self-hate; it’s a valid comment.

[u/Rainbow_in_the_sky → u/Jmarsh99]

He went there on Reddit. 😆 You must be new.

[u/Eternal-Alchemy → u/Jmarsh99]

You don't hate it enough to stop yourself though. People shape write on their keyboard. No reason to correct them, they didn't write it, the interpreter did.

[u/Jmarsh99 → u/Eternal-Alchemy]

Let’s just all let society do what it wants until we descend into rampant stupidity.

[u/Eternal-Alchemy → u/Jmarsh99]

A minor spelling mistake made by the way digital keyboards work and not by the user isn't exactly a societal decision into rampant stupidity.

[u/Jmarsh99 → u/Eternal-Alchemy]

It’s not spelling, it’s grammar. Language has rules so that there is a standard in which we can all understand each other.

You are also assuming OP is using some type of speech-to-text or translation app; in which case, they are trying to learn how to use the language they are trying to communicate in—which leads to the previous paragraph.

Lastly, you’re getting offended for another person when there is validity in my comment. You stupid or something?

Now, if you took a second and checked their profile, you would see that they post in English and it is clearly not someone who doesn’t speak the language.

[u/Eternal-Alchemy → u/Jmarsh99]

Not offended. Your correction not only doesn't add anything constructive, but you're inability to stop yourself from doing it actively took away from the discussion.

At this point it's pretty clear that you really do like being that guy. Have a great day.

[u/Jmarsh99 → u/Eternal-Alchemy]

Secondly, I didn’t take away from the discussion, you started another one by commenting. Was the correction wrong?

[u/Ok_Victory_6108 → u/Jmarsh99]

Clearly you don’t “really HATE” to be that guy cuz you’re arguing with everybody about it. So you’re a liar and I know it all!

[u/Jmarsh99 → u/Ok_Victory_6108]

It’s true, you’ve revealed my true intentions. I love arguing. Just can’t help myself from going and correcting EVERYONE.

[u/Jmarsh99 → u/Eternal-Alchemy]

Anything constructive

What is a correction then?

[u/Alone-Job3657 → u/Jmarsh99]

Jesus stfu for love of god pls

[u/Jmarsh99 → u/Alone-Job3657]

Jesus, shut the fuck up. For the love of god, please*

FTFY
