Sometimes I correct people, but mostly I just stay out of it. I don't want to eavesdrop on other people's lives, unlike my sister Yams who's standing right next to me.  |

 I think English is the stupidest language there is. Many people agree. But alas, none of them are here. I want to try and make the English Language Spelt the way it is pronounced. I've went through this before with a few people, but never got even a hint of a dream of a thought of support. So I won't go into it. |

Graedius, I seriously do not blame you. I think English sucks, too, and the way it was all entirely constructed and spelled is just utterly random and illogical.

English is supposedly the hardest language to learn. Too many homophones and homonyms.

I'm an absolute terrible correcter...I think I have a disorder or something. n_n* Hehe...we did understand what you were saying Graedius, but we also have our own opinions too. We can't all change our views to fit other peoples like that. *clicks* It would be a difficult world to live in if we did. We don't support you, but we neither disregard your statements. We appreciate them, but not follow them. Simple, right? <=] Anyways, I'm gonna stop this now...*conks head* I've really gotta try and stop getting the last word in...  ...makes me even more proud that I know it, now. n_n* I thought you said something ELSE then....n___n* |

English is supposedly the hardest language to learn. Too many homophones and homonyms. English? That's not what I heard. I heard there are more difficult languages to learn. Like Chinese and Japanese, they use symbols to represent something. English to me was fairly simple. I learned how to speak English in one year. I was only in ESOL for about 2-3 years. To me, English was easy to learn. As for the people who say English sucks because its spelling is illogical, become a doctor. Then the spelling and pronounciation of English would make more sense because many English words come from Medical roots. That's why most students who's parents are doctors are excellent spellers and readers. Think about it.  |

Actually, Japanese is a whole lot earier to learn and memorise, because they are made up of vowels.
English = A E I O U (we say: Ay, ee, eye, owe, you)
Japanese = A I U E O (They say Ah, ee, ooh, eh, owe)
You start with the basic vowels, and just add the correct constonants before. For example, M. that would turn the vowels into;
Ma, Mi, Mu, Me, Mo.
Its very easy if you practice it enough, just as any other language. People only say that english is hard because that particular language has many many different variations of saying one thing. =]

Hey, that's just like the Spanish vocabulary! A- Ah E-Eh I-ee O-O U- ooh Plus, in the Spanish vocabulary, they have more letters in the aphabet. There letters include: CH, LL, N (with the ~ sign ontop of it) and RR. That makes 30 letters in the Spanish Alphabet. |

 It's because this language is utter foolishness.... It's like constantly being surrounded in a pit of shallow insolence. |
