As some one who has moved countries and the main language isn't Indo-European in nature as well non alphabetical I'll share a bit. I have studied said language over 10 years and have been speaking it daily for at least 10 years. I have a few mistakes that I make but no one ever corrects them. I asked friends and family here why they never did. The response, because you sound cute making those mistakes. I was taken back and since then I always ask a coworker or loved one to check any documents I write that need to be official because those cute mistakes don't help.
