Congratulations, you are a grammar master! You have a superb understanding of even the trickiest grammar rules. Not only do you know the difference between affect and effect, but you also never confuse your tenses. You must be an English scholar because only 4% of Americans can get a perfect score on this test. And I'm a francophone!!!

Many of these questions are easier for a foreigner to answer than for someone who learned spoken and colloquial language before formal grammar and register. | | | Yasutomo Kanazawa Japan Local time: 04:20 Member (2005) English to Japanese + ... TOPIC STARTER Maybe so, but | Mar 9, 2017 |

One would learn correct and formal grammar at school even if one learnt spoken and colloquial language first. From you profile, your native language is German, but if this game was in your native language, would you still say that it's unfair to native German speakers? | | | Seemed way, way too easy | Mar 9, 2017 |
for a "grammar master". 25/25. | |
