Naw man. Grammer ain't important worth shit. All it's done for me and you is hold us back intelectually and stuff. If I can just say what i want without all these stupid rules and stuff i could say alot more stuff, know what I'm sayin? The rich people's worried about speaking all proper and shit. We don't need that shit, man. We say what we want, how we want and i don't need some rich person or a teacher to tell me how to talk.


Absolutely! Grammar, as well as punctuation and spelling, is critical in properly conveying your message. While one can easily convey basic information using poor grammar and choppy sentence structure, it is far harder to convey detailed or intricate information without it. Wealthy and educated individuals don't use more sophisticated language to elevate themselves above others. Instead, more sophisticated language is necessary to properly communicate complex ideas that are crucial for their work and lifestyles.

Yes, I once texted my ex I would go to restaurant she was at, eat, (a bamboo) shoot, and leave. Leaving out commas would have prevented getting that restraining order and a lawyer's bill.

It's only important if you want others to understand you and not think you're an idiot.

It depends on the level of communication you're hoping to achieve.

For basic things, grammar isn't important. "I hunger apple want" successfully conveys the message accurately.

When establishing a metanarrative, using ennuendo, or nuanced concepts, grammar becomes key. "I agree; the slavery of American blacks was a tragedy, and caused irreparable damage to those nations." This would not correctly convey the secondary meaning without excellent grammar.

Also, spelling, punctuation, and syntax are reliable heuristics for gauging the intellect of your partner, as well as providing a useful shiboleth for yourself to show that you aren't an idiot.

I'll explain this using mathematical grammar 29081992- this number could be anything, But when I used mathematical grammar, it became- 29.08.1992 now it clearly seems to be a date. This is how important grammar is.
