Personally, and anecdotally, I've found English speakers to be quite forgiving of poor English — that is, they usually make an effort to try and understand someone with broken English, and they don't usually point out poor grammar (though, that could be because the majority of English speakers don't have the best grammar to begin with 😉). Especially when one compares them with some other cultures, eg the French.
You haven't tried speaking bad English in a new York shop apparently.
Oh that's just New Yorkers in general really
Well, ok. But they're still technically American.
That is true
Haha yes! That's it right there. Most Americans don't seem to have a master of this language.
"Grammar Nazi's", as we call them, have very few friends. I haven't encountered a single one in years.
