Sheffield's quite nice - the city centre is a dump but it has really nice suburbs bordering the Peak District and has a lot of students. It's often dubbed Britain's largest village due to its picturesque setting.

Is Rotherham crap or nice? The person I'm talking about lived in Rotherham.
How the fu kk can someone whit british langage get wrong "your" and "you're"? What if your'e English Theacher learnt some bettery, yes?
I've been reading English since I was 9, and continued that at the Uni. And still it's broken. FOREIGNOR, wtf? How bad is the British schooling system, and what criteria are there? Unbelievable.
Because when native speakers write they hear the sounds of the words in their heads when they type. People who learn English as a second language learn writing at the same time as speaking, and think of the written spellings more.
I switch "your" and "you're" sometimes when typing fast, but I do know which is correct.
You know I think it's very obnoxious to come and make that point about yous apparently speaking "better" English than us. It is our language not yours. You were taught to speak the queens English, you learn't it so obviously it is gonna be better or should I say more snobby.
I certainly wasn't taught the Queen's English, nor would I ever want to.
