What do y'all think about Morendil's claim not to be a native English speaker? ;-)

(Because that might be misunderstood: I don't get how non-native speakers get accustomed to using so many idioms and colloquialisms.)

Roko, ciphergoth, Leonhart and Alexandros can now testify to my accent. (I've sometimes been told I sound like I'm Russian.)

Okay, but where do you come up with terms like "y'all" and "spoilsport"?
