#WritersCoffeeClub 3-29 grammar:
Grammar and structured language exist to aid communication. To express yourself, grammar is not important. If you want others to understand your expression, it is—but which grammar and to what degree depends on *who* it is you want to understand you
"Standardized” grammar is there (in theory) to give your expression the widest possible reach. I say "in theory" because language evolves, and many use it instead as a means of oppression
