Some say this is due to overuse of the internet and mobile phones.

Discuss...
The internet and mobile phone culture certainly does not help.

The ability to have excellent literacy skills does not alway indicate common sense skills.

What matters at the end of the day is the ability to be understood..... Not the excellence or otherwise of the grammer and spelling. Those that choose to show off by using words that are not generally used as per norm actually make themseves less understood than those who have fewer literacy skills.
i agree
