I know that this is true for German, but I guess some other countries could relate.
when people learn German whose native language uses another script,I often see that they do not capitalize the beginning of sentences.or they don't leave blank spaces after commas or periods. <- Just like this.
So why should you pay attention to such details? They don't really require skill, right? Isn't it more important to do the tricky parts right?
No. Because these are rules with no exceptions!
If you don't follow them - I'm sorry, but: It feels like you don't care if you do it right or not. To us, this basically seems like something you can only do on purpose. (Heavens, I'm not saying this was true!)
I can only speak for Germany, but fact is, this is perceived as rude. Disrespectful.
We know that language learning is hard, and everyone will always forgive mistakes that you make. (Since I was talking about German: This includes the capitalization of nouns, of course. That is a tricky rule again, unlike the sentence beginning part. No worries, you don't need to be perfect there.)
But unfortunately for you, all our surrounding countries use the Latin or Cyrillic script, and that deceives us into thinking the upper/lower case letter issue was a universal idea.
The easier a rule is, the more you should follow it.
I'm really sorry if this seems hard, but I'm seeing this since more than three years now from so many people, sometimes even from so advanced and dedicated learners and... I just hope that maybe this information can help someone to make the impression that they want to make. After all, I know how hard people try, and it's so sad if there's no one to tell them where to look at. It has such a strong impact on the impression that a text makes.
Taking this so serious is a very weird thing. It really is, I admit it. But you should know about it.
여러분 안녕하세요!
토론장을 살펴보다가 생각이 났어요. 우리가 왜 항상 영어로만 토론을 하는지 정말 몰라요. 한국어로 적어보면 여러분 어떻개 생각하신가요?
뭘로 시작할까...
여러분 한국과 무슨 관계가 있으신지 궁금합니다. 예를 들어서 한국어를 왜 배우시는지 말입니다.
이런 토론에 대한 관심이 있으면 또 해봅시다!
