It's your language. You use it every day. You should strive to master it. My late mother, a 27-year, graduate-level professor of English, embedded that in my brain once upon a time. I’m not nearly as smart as she was, but I’m sharp enough to recognize that the vast majority of native-born Americans can’t speak or write English worth a lick.

Huh?
Former aide to governor Chris Christie, Bill Stepien, was reported to have said in an email:
"It's fine. The mayor is an idiot, though. Whensome, lose some."
I can't say that I've ever seen that usage before. Interesting.
