    As a native English speaker, are there any obvious signs that tell you that the writer is not a native? Are there particular words, phrases or writing style that sounds foreign and doesn't click with you?

    I'm not native, but I know that many times whatever I write may not sound natural for native speakers :) Sometimes it's a small thing but natives will notice.
