culture note
most people who speak english as a native language don’t have the same grammatical background as people who study english as a second language.
however, what a person who was born speaking english knows is whether or not things sound "right". he or she might not be able to explain the reason, but will usually have a good sense of how english should be used. because english is a language made up from many different languages with a lot of odd rules, a learner should be a bit flexible and understand that some rules are made to be broken.
