You think English is easy ? (2)

Let’s 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 weren’t invented in England or French fries in France .

Sweetmeats are candies while sweetbreads, which aren’t sweet, are meat. We take English for granted. But if we explore its paradoxes, we find that quicksand can work slowly, boxing rings are square and a guinea pig is neither from Guinea nor is it a pig. And why is it that writers write but fingers don’t fing, grocers don’t groce and hammers don’t ham? If the plural of tooth is teeth, why isn’t the plural of booth, beeth? One goose, 2 geese. So one moose, 2 meese? One index, 2 indices?

Doesn’t it seem crazy that you can make amends but not one amend? If you have a bunch of odds and ends and get rid of all but one of them, what do you call it?

English was invented by people, not computers, and it reflects the creativity of the human race, which, of course, is not a race at all. That is why, when the stars are out, they are visible, but when the lights are out, they are invisible.

P.S. – Why doesn’t ‘Buick’ rhyme with ‘quick?’

If teachers taught, why didn’t preachers praught? If a vegetarian eats vegetables, what does a humanitarian eat?

Sometimes I think all the English speakers should be committed to an asylum for the verbally insane. In what language do people recite at a play and play at a recital? Ship by truck and send cargo by ship? Have noses that run and feet that smell?

How can a slim chance and a fat chance be the same, while a wise man and a wise guy are opposites? You have to marvel at the unique lunacy of a language in which your house can burn up as it burns down, in which you fill in a form by filling it out and in which, an alarm goes off by going on.

Anunt de la sefu

Joc o porcarie de joc gen triburile…sefu a lipsit 2 zile si ne anunta…unii au nevoie de o preocupare serioasa :)

Salutare si bine v-am regasit.Dupa cum probabil stiti deja,am avut cateva probleme de sanatate peste care am reusit sa trec cu bine.Imi cer scuze ca poate am lasat impresia ca nu mi-a mai pasat de voi,dar nu e asa.Am incercat sa ma interesez in fiecare zi de mersul lucrurilor.Va multumesc ca mi-ati ramas loial si ati fost alaturi de mine toata aceasta perioada grea.Sunt foarte fericit ca am revenit si va asigur ca voi munci de doua ori mai mult de acum incolo.Sper sa gasiti puterea sa ma iertati si sa ma ajutati sa imi indeplinesc menirea.Voi face tot posibilul sa va aduc pe primul loc,cat despre mine (pentru cei ce tineati la prestigiul aliantei, ca liderul sa fie rang 1 la general) deocamdata mi se pare aproape imposibil sa revin unde imi e locul,dar voi incerca si asta.Multe de zis…dar putin timp,ma apuc de treaba.
Best regards.
