There are many things I have to say, but I will restrain myself
The distinction I was making was that I was saying that what is "right" is what people speak. If it were not real life English and people didn't use it, no one would have to say "don't say that." In all reality, people have spoken their respective languages around the world perfectly well without being taught (in the sense you mean it) it at all.
So that we don't bother anyone else, if you have other questions, email me.
