I think this article is trying to say that people who speak English with an accent or have imperfect grammar shouldn't feel bad about themselves. It's okay if you don't know how to use certain words properly as long as you're able to convey your message across clearly. I agree with the author because there are many different ways of speaking and writing in any language, including English. We all make mistakes sometimes when using a foreign language like English, which can be frustrating for both parties involved (the speaker/writer and listener/reader). However, instead of focusing on those errors made while communicating through another tongue, we should focus more on understanding what was said rather than criticizing someone else’s way of saying something.
