At least one answer to every question here on Yahoo Answers that I've read so far has text messaging abbreviations, bad spelling, poor grammar, lack of punctuation, run-on sentences (like this one ;-), a combination of all of the preceding maladies, or some other characteristic that I find hard to read. Do you think it makes these answers unreadable or at least harder to read?

[Personally, I cannot wait for speech recognition software to become ubiquitous (it works well now) so that no one has to type on those tiny little 'keyboards' on phones, no typing and thus no more typographical errors, etcetera. I know this may be a bit 'Pollyanna' of me, and I do have high hopes for speech recognition and translation software.]

Whenever I go to a place where the people have an accent, it seems after only a few weeks I've gotten that accent. When I was in Boston, I had the accent, and people thought I was from there. Same with Canada, and a lot of other countries/states. The only problem is, I was planning on moving to the UK sometime next semester, and I don't want people to think that I'm just putting up an act, because I really can't help it! Is there anything I can do?

I know this seems kind of random, putting all these languages together, but i just wanted to get someone's attention who spoke them so they could tell me about theirs. You don't have to answer and tell me about all of them, just whatever you know. What i am asking is what makes each language hard to learn? What makes it easy? What makes it unique? (For example: Spanish is easy because of you can drop subject pronouns but hard because of its subjunctive mood). I really love languages and want to learn about them all! Please help if you can! Thanks!

Many languages have spoken question marks:
Finnish adds either "-ko" or " -kö" to the word.
Estonian starts the sentence with "Kas".
Chinese ends the sentence with "ma"

Could someone please add to this list?
