I have had comments on my You Tube from those I assume to be Americans who speak English that make less sense then some English as a second language writers. Leet and txt spelling aside, not even getting in to that they can't tell the difference between you're and your, it makes me wonder if they were all educated in California? If you've been to public school here in the last 20 years you know what I'm talking about.
We have a fun little book in our bathroom called Accommodating Broccoli in the Cemetery about the joys of English spelling, words that should be changed, and so forth. Some words have lost sounds and others were changed by people in charge who wanted the words to be closer to their French or Latin roots. As for grammar I remember getting some lessons in sentence structure in the good elementary school I went to, then I went to middle school with 100 other kids in the room and couldn't learn a thing.
