So why teach English at all? People could just make it all up theirself.
You teach the currently relevant rules, vocabulary and literature while the students learn the rest through cultural osmosis. Like every one of us did.
I like that term. Thanks for introducing me to it.
Happy to help! And you can now say you learned about cultural osmosis through cultural osmosis!

it changed over time and you learned and changed with it
If that was even slightly true my comment would be unreadable to you.
