All you might do is note you are not a native English speaker or writer. Please stay and do not worry about those rude people who have anything negative to say about your questions or answers.

I think if you enjoy this site, and you enjoy answering then you should stay. If you are afraid that they will not understand what you are trying to say , then tell them that when you answer. What I mean is you can say I apologize that my english is not good enough to express exactly what I want to say. Then maybe they can try and read between the lines and try to get your real meaning. There is nothing wrong with not being able to speak proper or what might be considered proper English. Not even people born in countries that speak English can talk properly or express things correctly . English is one of the hardest languages to learn since it has so many slangs, and the same word can have 3 different meanings , and spellings. The vowels can make so many different sounds either by themselves or even conjoined with another vowel. It is always good to know the language of the country you are living in , but if you can learn even a little of somebody else's language their is nothing to feel humiliated about . How many people do you know that are born speaking English , and do not know even one word of another language. So be proud and as long as your not harrassing anyone you should have no problems enjoying the site.
Take Care

I must admit I am one of those who might criticize someone for poor grammar and spelling, but especially if I know it's an American student or even an adult that really should know better.
If I were to go to a Forum in another country where I wasn't well versed in that language, I would expect some ridicule from those members as well.
So...goddess19...I am putting you on my Ignore List and promise I will not embarrass you or in any way try to humiliate you for any deficiency in English language skills you might exhibit ...
Please stay and participate in Yahoo! Answers.
I look forward to your Question and Answer posts.
btw...your English language skills are much better than you are giving yourself credit for....I can understand you very well and in fact are a lot better than some American high school graduates I've seen in here.
I would suggest you simply remember to use the "Check Spelling" option right above the window that you type in and you'll do just fine.

You must stay, your English is better than that of some others on this site. I can understand you.
You are not "worst in English language". You might say "My English is not good yet." If someone tries to humiliate you or embarrass you, ignore them.

Stay, and ignore those who make fun. As we were just talking about in a previous question, America is the land of immigrants, even the people we refer to as American Indians came from elsewhere.
Do you wish to learn to speak more English? Then you should stay. I can't say that you will learn to speak better English, just more! LOL!

Why think about going, because your English is not perfect? If you stay here you will be able to improve it, and I am quite sure you will learn a lot of phrases that are not in your English text book !
