What's wrong with my English? I've heard nothing but compliments about it, before entering the Moose, that is.

I think we could argue about the definition on "good english" until the cows come home.

But technically speaking the Citizen's english is fine, its a bit formal for the forum, but Mr. Mann is using a similar style in Hebrew.

It may annoy some people, but style is a highliy subjective matter.

Specifically, you occasionally misspell some basic words. A recent one was 'persue' instead of 'pursue'. I note this because you asked.

I think your English is fine, and welcome you to use it here and elsewhere, and let whoever minds mind.

Hmm... at least I did not replace it with "peruse".. :-)

Well, my conclusions are similar. As a person who constantly spends time with people who speak other languages (Russian and Arabic, specifically), I don't object to foreign languages - I feel bad for not being able to understand almost all of them, but that's another issue. It seems that some people object to my using English for some personal, irrelevant reasons. Had ignorance truely been the issue, had people asked me to use Hebrew because they don't _understand_ English, my response would have been different - I could always try to write Hebrew phonetically. But this isn't the case, so I would rather not embarrass myself.

I have no objection for writing in English, especially that I am well aware of the technical difficulties.

Nevertheless, I'd like to commend you on this particular response, on which you've managed to avoid some of the more obscure vocabulary, limiting yourself to plainspoken English.

Could you mean that the problem people have with my English is the same problem had with my Hebrew, when I was in grade school? Vocabulary that they considered "obscure?" Need I now dumb myself down for the masses? This is the kind of thing that I had hoped going to an Undergraduate school would prevent.
