It drives me nuts "TOO" when I see people in America (native English speaking) don't know the difference...
Well done dude !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Actually made me check what “twit” means. Hence, a good lesson.
Using English as the third language, I have difficulties with evaluating the power of a word, its emotional loading, so to say. Or possible effects.
So it would be very helpful with some kind of a scale. Where is “twit” comparing to “idiot” and “fool”? Could you order them, please? Say, next week.
By the way, is it “mini English” lessons or mini lessons in English?
