<p>Have you ever wondered how many of the people who say "sorry about my English, i'm foriegn" are actually foriegn? I always think that some people just say that because they want to prevent the grammar Nazis from attacking.</p>

<p>I might be wrong, but it sems like a disporportionate amount of people claim that they are foriegn.</p>

<p>Sorry about my English, Im foriegn. ;)</p>

<p>I’m Canadian by birth. Does that count?</p>

3

<p>This makes me want to pretend to be foreign, and then use perfect grammar. Haha.</p>

4

<p>ha no i think its gotten to the point where its more like a joke so hardly anyone takes them seriously. too bad for the people who really are foreign.</p>

<p>btw, could someone help me with starting my own thread? i cant find anything about it.</p>

<p>Is English your native language?</p>
