I feel bad laughing at these things
As I always have a lot of mistakes, but then, if it's your mother tongue and you can't communicate properly on it, you deserve to be laughed at.

I'm a grammar nazi in Spanish and my friends and family never appreciated it.

because they don't speak Spanish

Not PROPER Spanish, no
They don't even know some very common words. Worst of all is my mother, who keeps trying to talk with slang, but always has it wrong.

For example, when we are scared, we say:

Me cago por la pata pa'bajo (I shit down the leg)

She says:

Me cago por la mata bajo (I shit under the bush)

How is that supposed to mean anything?? How am I supposed to tell my mother that she's not using the slang properly??

Just tell her that she needs to sort her shit out.
