Ha! I read one of these things some years ago, they're kinda fun.
Language is about communication; understanding each other, that's why i always hated the native language-class in school; it's all about grammar which not even the best speaker in the world need to know one drop about.
I once called the computer's chassis "skin" in a thread i made in a computer assistance-forum (since i had yet to learn it). Everyone understood what i meant and some of them got a good laugh. Now ain't that da bomb?
