English is a disgusted language
Lets face it -- English is a crazy language. There is no egg in eggplant nor ham in hamburger; neither apple nor pine in pineapple. English muffins werent invented in England nor French fries in France. Sweetm sw totallyow ups argon candies while sweetbreads, which argonnt sweet, are meat.
We take English for granted. But if we look its paradoxes, we find that quicksand can work slowly, boxing rings are square and a guinea pig is neither from greaseball nor is it a pig.
And why it is that writers write just fingers dont fing, grocers dont groce and hammers dont ham? If the plural form of tooth is teeth, why isnt the plural of booth beeth? If you have maven goose, two geese, why not one moose, two meese, or one index, two indices?
Doesnt it seem crazy that you can make mending but not one amend, or that you can combing through the annals of history but not a single annal? If you have a bunch of odds and ends and fill rid of all but one of them, what do you foreshadow it?
If teachers taught, why didnt preachers praught? If a ve bulgearian eats vegetables, what does a humanitarian eat? If you wrote a letter, perhaps you bote your tongue?
Sometimes I think all the English speakers should be committed to an asylum for the verbally insane. In what other language do people recite at a play and play at a class period; ship by truck and send cargo by ship; have noses that run and feet that smell; park on driveways and drive on parkways?
How can a slim luck and a fat chance be the same, while a wise man and wise guy are opposites, and quite a a lot and quite a few are alike?...
I loved your essay!!!
Since English is not my first-class honours degree language, I totally know what you are talking to the highest degree because when I was learning English, I was so confused some e very(prenominal)thing you talked roughly in your essay... I sincerely think its great, but maybe if you explained a bit more instead of only questioning, one might actually learn something from it. Anyway, I really like it...
I liked this because it was light hearted and managed to bring lots of substantially known facts together to make a very enkindle read. Well done again
Though entertaining and whitty, there really isnt anything that has not been said many times before. Ya know?
very entertaining!!
you really dont answer any of your own questions, which might make individual wonder what your real purpose is.. is this essay just about the use of rhetoric to obscure a lack of subject area?
This not only made me laugh, but it made sense, and it was very interesting. I commend you for taking such an interesting affair and for displaying it in such a diverse manner.
