Mebbe, but they're no apologetic apostrophes; some pairts say "the", ithers "de", yet ithers "e", sae " 'e" covers the lot.

Nae problem. It's ma belief that, particular wi lairners o a leid, it's mair important tae use it nor gie a knock back that its no perfect. If ye dinnae use it, ye cannie perfect it.
Sae I say onlie gie correction when soucht. Tho if it is we can debate whits "best" all nicht if o a mind tae.

Thankye. Tae ken whaur ye're coming frae helps me tae unnerstand yer backgroond an aw tae lairn better. As mentioned afore, Ah'm guid wi feedback, specially frae native spikkers. Jist keep in mind 'at Ah'm a total beginner an rarely e'en hae the chance tae practise the leid.
Ah'll tak it as a compliment 'at ye mentioned the commas, as 'at's aboot 'e last thing tae git richt in a foreign leid. 😊
