This is for everyone of every age. Why is that if you read most of the questions/answer on the Answers web page, you can barely discern the English language. Spell check is incorporated into the program and if your unsure of your grammar you could write your question or response in Word then press the button for grammar and spell check simultaneously.

So why then are most questions asked and answered unintelligible?

Spell check doesn't work on everyone's computers, and not everyone has Word. There are people from all over the world here, for many English is there second or third language. How well can you do in another language?

No offense to you but you are not perfect either. Your mistakes don't get corrected because you used a right spelling but the wrong usage. So maybe you should cut people a LITTLE more slack and just worry about you:)

spell check and grammar check work pretty well in finding technical mistakes, but it does not interpret what you are trying to say. it's up to the writer to provide good syntax, and not everyone does it well enough to make it readable and understandable to other people.

Not to nitpick, but your English isn't perfect either.

You said "if your unsure of your grammar." It should have been "if you're unsure of your grammar."

I usually let go minor mistakes, but since you are being critical of others, I'd think you would want to be perfect in your language doing so.
