See, that is what I mean. Nobody speaks "perfect" English, not even native speakers, because languages are not prescriptive. Their function is to communicate ideas and if you have successfully communicated then you have used language "perfectly".

So you agree “perfect English” doesn’t exist in Germany. What was your point again?

See, you might have noticed that I never claimed perfect English existed in Germany (or anywhere). You seem to be attempting to win an argument that doesn't exist.

This is why we love Germans. Unironically.
