A lot of common grammatical and spelling mistakes in every language are way more common among native speakers than people who aren't native speakers.

I notice several native English speakers don't know how to use "your" and "you're" properly or "there" and "their". But those mistakes aren't so common among non-native English speakers who are highly fluent in the language, from my observation. Probably because when you're young and learning English in school you'll get yelled at by the teacher for not knowing when to use "your" or "you're" and "there" or "their", while native speakers don't think much about grammar rules and take their own language for granted.

That wouldn't work in my language. Ofc we have different accents and dialects, but we all write in the same manner regardless of what part of the country we come from. Brazilians do write differently, however Sometimes I have no clue what they're even saying. But their accents/dialects are also quite different from ours, so it makes sense their written Portuguese is different as well.

In German, writing in dialect is a thing too, btw.

speaking vs written Language is very different. Norwegian basically is a hodgepodge of dialects and some are so far out there it's like a completely different Language

Like the bordering municipality have their own very distinct dialects, not just county from county. Heck, the neighbor municipality my dad lives in use the other official written Language then the rest of the county, which is a more popular written Language further North of the country.

So basically, your language isn't very standardised? Our language, at least the European variety of it, is very standardised. Ofc there's some parts in the country where people have some rather thick accents, but they'll write just like anyone else, so it's not like you can tell where they're from through written text.

Then you have languages like German and Italian which have a lot of dialects. Not to mention Germany and Italy have some minority languages as well. hen again, Italy and Germany as we know them today are rather modern inventions, so it makes sense for their countries to have a lot of linguistic and dialectal variety.

only our written Language is standardised. We have Bokmål and Nynorsk (book speak and New norwegian) and Sami which isn't mandatory to know.

No one truly speaks bokmål cause that would sound stilted and unatural (although some People in Olso claims they speak bokmål which is BS) and nynorsk is just a Collection that was made early 1900, where some asshole just picked words that sounded "real Norwegian" and mixed it into a written Language casue bokmål looked too Danish, so it's a grammar mess.
