Yes, not speaking the same language or not quite meeting the same expectations in language... it's hard. You don't want to say "oops sorry could you try to say/type that again" because you worry you might offend them or are embarrassed but it's worse if you just keep going on not being 100% on the same page.
BUT BE RESPECTFUL AND ACCEPT THAT AND WORK TOWARDS GETTING ON THE SAME PAGE. No matter if English is second language or native! Yes native speakers, you have to make some effort too and it's not just "hurm I tried to make sense of it.."
It is also, "I tried making sense... I spoke with them to try and see if we understand each other, because I want to be clear."
I was so mad when one of the most annoying people in my FC (honestly I don't know why leadership doesn't do something. People say they've blacklisted him but some say have grudge etc) ranted about a Tank in like... Haukke or Toto-Rak.
"This paladin only does Rage of halone! Augh bad player!"
"So, why not try to inform that the tank would be better off doing the combo?"
"They're French. So ugh."

lease. Autotranslate:Thank you ? Granted, I did a google translate of "then" but at least I tried."
"Whatever, it's not like they're in Balmung. They're not having issues with hate either so whatever."
"Inb4 Balmung. Also, then why the fuck are you ranting if there's no issues?"
