One thing to remember about Youtube commenters; many of them are not English speakers. Compared to my Filipino or Mandarin, their English is pretty good.
But if you want to criticize what they're saying, that's a bit different.
- maw 18y agoI can read the comments on videos in Spanish, and let me tell you: they're not pretty. I expect readers of other languages would say the same.
- sofal 18y agoI think people overestimate the difficulty of learning a new language. Compared to my Portuguese, their English is downright embarrassing and shameful, and I'm not proud of my current Portuguese due to lack of practice. It's not that hard to learn decent grammar, especially with the resources available to those with Internet access. The fact that these kids can hammer out imbecilic English sentences doesn't impress me.
