Why is grammar important?
Some say grammar doesn't matter anymore, especially in a society where texting and using slang terminology is so popular. After all, who has time to worry about misplaced modifiers with all those emojis to choose from?
However, in the professional world, correct grammar is still a critical skill to master. On the other hand, basic grammatical errors can demonstrate unprofessionalism. *Whether you are looking for a new job or marketing a product, service or writing, the way you speak and write impacts how people perceive you. *Having good grammar helps you come across as more intelligent, educated, and professional. Poor grammar can put off clients, particularly if you're a writer. A single mistake isn't a big ideal, but a litany suggests poor attention to detail. *If you plan to lead others, good communication skills, and therefore good grammar, are assets to foster. If you decide to go to college or grad school, written grammar skills will be necessary to help you write papers.
On the other hand, bad grammar errors detract from the message or image you are trying to portray. Elon Musk reportedly fired some of his employees for typos and grammar mistakes in important communications.
When you submit a paper or resume with grammatical errors, it can make you look less professional or educated. Your important words become less powerful when filled with grammar problems.
It's fine to text with poor grammar, but not so much if you're writing a pitch or cover letter for a job interview.
