Zeroshot Posted May 17, 2008 Report Share Posted May 17, 2008 I received an interesting E Mail today. Thought you'd want to know. 21 Reasons why the English language is so hard to learn: 1) The bandage was wound around the wound. 2) The farm was used to produce produce. 3) The dump was so full that it had to refuse more refuse. 4) We must polish the Polish furniture. 5) He could lead if he would get the lead out. 6) The soldier decided to desert his dessert in the desert. 7) Since there is no time like the present, he thought it was time to present the present. 8) A bass was painted on the head of the bass drum. 9) When shot at, the dove dove into the bushes. 10) I did not object to the object. 11) The insurance was invalid for the invalid. 12) There was a row among the oarsmen about how to row. 13) They were too close to the door to close it. 14) The buck does funny things when the does are present. 15) A seamstress and a sewer fell down into a sewer line. 16) To help with planting, the farmer taught his sow to sow. 17) The wind was too strong to wind the sail. 18) After a number of injections my jaw got number. 19) Upon seeing the tear in the painting I shed a tear. 20) I had to subject the subject to a series of tests. 21) How can I intimate this to my most intimate friend?

Guest JoshIcy Posted May 17, 2008 Report Share Posted May 17, 2008 the way i see it is:1) The english language has 3 forms of its own language each form just as acceptable as the last.2) Arcane English is the hardest to Learn, while basic english is world renowned.3) The form you showed is simply a creative way to use alternate definitions of the same word but not required....

CrabHelmet Posted May 17, 2008 Report Share Posted May 17, 2008 A far bigger problem with English is that "shepherd" doesn't have another "e". Stupid English. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Huntar! Posted May 17, 2008 Report Share Posted May 17, 2008 It may just be that I speak it, but it all kind of makes sense. Things should be spelled the way they sound. Maybe if we had more sounds in the alphabet, but we dont. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
