Laidrhymes withpaidbut notplaid . WHY ?
English is hard for everyone. You could be learning it as a second language or even majoring in it in college, but either way, it’ll never make perfect sense. Some language quirks can be fun. Others? Infuriating.
sense devoid to give a follow to the accounts that really nail it .
1.English really should not be that difficult to read.
English is a difficult language . It can be empathize through tough exhaustive intellection , though .
" Throo tuff thurrow thot , thow . "
2.Granted, the language has its moments.
Because why would you require to gender " the " ? !
3.But also, it sometimes just refuses to make sense.
4.And don’t get me started on the spelling.
@seeinglando @PicturesFoIder " Inglish iz litrly uiriten d uiey itz pronaunsd bisaidz e fyu wuurds "
5.Of course, our spelling has rules; it’s just that none of them ever apply!
@mythsbaby English is famously three languages standing on each other ’s shoulders wearing a trench pelage
The years - sure-enough saw …
( A tidings that I just learn how to pronounce right . )
6.But blame the French and Italians, not us!
i literally detest the english language … literally colonel and Bologna sausage ? ? ? ? ? HOW
7.No, really. Most of the time you’re mad, you can blame the French.
Why is Kansas label Kansas but Arkansas is say Arkansas
I do this in general , not just for language stuff .
8.Although sometimes, their influence can bring a certainje ne sais quoito otherwise…inelegantverbiage.
english fuck up of the day : i conceive ballache was label like ganache
9.So true.
why do people act like learning languages is operose ? if you know one you get laid them all . Gallic is just fancy spanish . german is just mean french . english ? that ’s dense german , infant
French is Spanish if you take out the parts that make sentience , German is French if you make it make sense again , English is … well . English is … GerFrench ? Is this what being a linguist is ?
10.I personally have, like, 12 of these:
hey kids who hear their vocab from read , what Word of God that you mispronounced still haunts you
Reply tweets include such classics as " salmon , " " iron , " and " indict . " As well as a twosome other words that I just learned I was misspeak for the first fourth dimension .
11.TBH, these have always annoyed me.
english is so confusing what is acclivity and raise and consist and place omg and why do you say blood but tomfool it ’s two o ’s in both urghhh
We have ' oo ’s like " blood , " " good , " and " brook , " but then also like " fool , " " moonlight , " and " photograph " ? ? Make it make sense .
12.I do know the answers to these, but they still make me mad…
english is so perplexing because why do you say fish and not fishs . or men and not man . or women and not fair sex . and so many others-
Okay if you really wanna know … A vowel change like inman / men , woman / charwoman , orsing / sang / sungis known as an " ablaut , " and most Indo - European languages have at least a couple of them . Now , you have a fun new trivia fact !
13.Who knew??
WE HAVE A MAJOR ANNOUNCEMENT .
It ’s spelled " whoa , " not " woah . "
I lied , I did know that . And now you do , too , and it will annoy you any prison term you see someone say " woah . "
14.For the record, American spelling is superior.
i fucking detest the english linguistic communication . is it defense or defense , heart or centre ? ? ? ? make up your darned nous
The US and England should campaign another war and standardize spelling .
15.And I will always defend the glottal stop “T.”
start ta bonk the English language
16.English has its good moments!
That the wrangle cow chip and dip rhyme is one of the most beautiful things about the English oral communication
Like , that was just intend to be .
17.If you don’t like chips…
I love the English speech communication . 🤣
Anything in particular drive you nuts when it comes to English? Or any words you particularly like?
