This is literally the first time I have ever seen someone say "mustn't" on the internet

Did you think it wasn’t a real word and google it?

I live in the hope you did.

Not today Lemmy grammar Nazis…not today.

I didn't, I know it's a word in British English, I just wanted to say it's rare and I haven't seen anyone say it on the internet

Also yeah, I'm not a native language speaker

(And what do you mean by the nazi part? Why would you call anyone a nazi over something like a word?)
