Throwing idioms? Huh? What are idioms and how do you throw them?
To answer your question, I think the said esls have learned English in school only but have grown up consuming media (fiction and video games) only in their own language, mostly because everything has been translated/dubbed. See: France, Germany, Slavs, probably all Spanish and Portugese speaking countries. I remember reading an article about a famous German voice actor who dubbed live action movies. He and his stupid country should be thrown in a dumpster.
For me, a minor annoyance is when people from my country are too lazy to even try to pronounce English properly, even if they have good understanding of the grammar. Hearing the worst of it rapes my ears. Teachers probably aren't demanding enough these days.
