This is a great write up BUT there are other mistakes you should fix since you're helping someone learn. "He have" instead of "he has," etc.
WTF NO! You suggested that bullshit? I wondered why everything was so goddamn clunky.
"HE HAS", NOT "HE HAVE". And should be the ability.
The way it's written now sounds EXACTLY like someone who's first language ISNT English trying to teach someone else English. It's butchered terribly.
No, they wrote "have" which I am saying is one of the issues with their comment
Then you meant to write "'He has' instead of 'he have'". You wrote it backwards. Thanks for the downvote for YOUR mistake.
They didn’t write a mistake. They’re correcting the original comment and their correction is worded correctly.
The corrector was ambiguous about which version was the original and which version was the correction, as there are some [assumed words] that were left out and could be either "you said" or "it should be." My initial reaction was the same as the heavily downvoted person above, because my brain filled in "it should be" as the assumed words, where most people seemingly filled in "you said."
I probably should have worded it differently to be more clear but I was pointing out the mistakes so my grammar was correct.
But speaking of mistakes, it looks like you just made your second one by implying I downvoted you!
I'm getting quite the laugh at someone getting this angry over their own lack of reading comprehension.
I originally parsed their comment the same way you did, but I would have either asked for clarification or politely corrected them. Please be more respectful of others, there's really no need to be so agressive.
Aha, but there is also no reason to be so sensitive 🤔
