I can definitely recognize the writing styles of non-native speakers and can sometimes guess their primary language by the way they write. For example, Russian speakers tend to omit articles before nouns and speakers of romance languages often prefer Latin-derived words which also exist in English over more common Germanic words because those words transliterate easily from their language. I love it. It helps some of their culture and personality show up in their writing. It reminds me how diverse and varied the world is, and what a delight it is that we can come together on the Internet. |
