Oh come on, "don't be a grammar Nazi", how often do we hear this phrase. As Wikipedia puts it as, "A Grammar Nazi is a common term used on the internet and on social websites for an individual noticing a grammatical mistake and correcting obsessively. "Grammar Nazis" usually correct any punctuation or spelling errors they find in a comment or post. Also according to some "Grammar Nazis are people who use their freakishly and/or annoyingly powerful understanding of and compliance with grammar and spelling to attempt to "correct" others, usually the blissfully-oblivious-to-the-outside-world members and users of the Internet, who only understand the grammatically genocidal text-speak. However, the Grammar Nazi sees "correcting" others as "making" others "look like fools", and the others in question see the Grammar Nazi as "some asshole with no life".
Living the life of a Grammar Nazi is hard, but if you choose to go down this path, annoying people along the way will be an issue. Grammar Nazis are often portrayed as annoying pests who roam the Internet looking to cause trouble. No one likes a mean Grammar Nazi. For example instead of saying, "IT'S TOO NOT TO, YOU IGNORANT CHILD!" Try saying, "*Too. Ha ha! Everyone makes mistakes, it's okay."
If it's someone with authority you are trying to correct, don't! It is rude, especially if it is your parents. If it's your English teacher, she/he will probably not mind. Make sure it's the appropriate time to correct someone. In the middle of a casual conversation is the right time. In the middle of a class discussion is not.
Here is the thing....Good Grammar Should Be Everyone's Business. Good grammar is instrumental in conveying ideas with clarity, professionalism, and precision. Even so, the informality of e-mail, texting, and tweeting has crept deep into our daily lives. It is not uncommon to hear a co-worker make a grammatical faux pas such as "There's new people you should meet." According to Kyle Weins, "If you are a native English-speaker and never learned the difference between "it's" and "its, "especially given access to Google, an employer might wonder: What else have you failed to learn that might be useful? Knowing how to structure a grammatically correct sentence is a sign that you can analyse and explain complex problems.
Instead of criticizing a Grammar Nazi we should try to focus on our grammar and language.
