13 Times The English Language Made Absolutely No Sense At All — Drinokrane by Drinokrane: 8:23pm On Aug 13, 2016
Ah, the Queens language!
There is a funny saying that:
English doesn’t “borrow” from other languages: it follows them down dark alleys, knocks them over, and goes through their pockets for loose grammar and valuable vocabulary.
Well, here is why that quote is so true!

1. Why do we call a building a building, if it’s already built?

2. If you replace the “W” in Where, What, and When with a “T”, you answer the question.

3. If a vegetarian eats vegetables, what does a humanitarian eat?

4. French fries aka. chips were not invented in France.

5. The plural of tooth is teeth, but the plural of booth is not beeth.

6. A guinea pig is neither from Guinea nor is it a pig.

7. There is no egg in an eggplant.

8. When the stars are out, they are visible, but when the lights are out they are invisible.

9. Why is a “slim” chance and a “fat” chance the same thing?

10. We recite at a play and play at a recital.

11. We have noses that run, and feet that smell.

12. Place the word “ONLY” anywhere on this sentence.
She told him that she loved him.

13. Ugh!
The English language everyone
Please try to pronounce these— she who cat be named :-D
