    I think I understand you. You should write, "English-speaking people do not understand what I am trying to say".

    This may be what you would like.

    But that you are an English speaker is no excuse and has no relevance. Because the same applies in general to German speakers. So I should write:

    "Unthorough and ignorant people cause me a lot of additional work because they don't pay enough attention to what I state and this is something that I hate because it's unnecessary."

    Of course, this is eventually all up to me. I do cause it by communicating with such people. I'm aware of that.

    I think he tries too hard to write correct english grammatically and to seem intellectual in his sentences and vocabulary, probably he often uses auto correction and translators thats why it is hard to understand him. I use and write simple english probably make many mistakes but people understand me

    I don't have much of a problem understanding rothaer generally, as a native English speaker. It's just a matter of adjusting oneself to the different ways people communicate.

    What I refer to has nothing to do with the language. This is just a comfortable wish of ~Elizabeth~.

    Again: It applies likewise to German speakers. Many people simply don't pay enough attention to what exactly is stated. This is even their main problem that also leads to (disadvantageous to them) law cases.

    Most people here have difficulty with writing English. I adjust and I try to understand what people are trying to say. I don't have to adjust for some people. The best writers are Colonel Frank Grimes and Florstadt. I have difficulty writing too, even though I am a native English speaker, because I don't know how to use punctuation ( : & ; ) .

    The "attended" is confusing, but i think i know what you mean. You wish you conveyed what you intended using the right words from the get go, so you don't have to explain the whole idea for half an hour.

    It's their way to do a "play bow" with humans. Sometimes they do an actual playbow too first, like with other dogs, if you don't respond a [yes] or [no] to it, they ll keep on doing that.

    It's annoying yes because most dogs never had the slightest amount of education, when it's an easy 3min fix early on to prevent them from jumping on guests.
