Why Is The English Language So Difficult To Master? by Phate07(m): 3:49am On Oct 11, 2010 |
Why is English such a difficult language to master? Why must it have too many words? Even the reverred 'masters' and 'experts' don't fully comprehend it! Then what should a simple everyday consumer of the English language like me do? Imagine this: The bandage was wound around the wound. The farm was used to produce produce. The dump was so full that it had to refuse more refuse. We must polish the Polish furniture. He could lead if he would get the lead out. The soldier decided to desert his dessert in the desert. Since there is no time like the present, he thought it was time to present the present. At the army base a bass was painted on the head of the bass drum. When shot at, the dove dove into the bushes. I did not object to the object. They were too close to the door to close it. The buck does funny things when the does are present. The wind was too strong to wind the sail. I had to subject the subject to a series of tests. How can I intimate this to my most intimate friend? You park in a driveway, yet drive on a parkway Why do "fat chance" and "slim chance" mean the same thing? Why do "tug" boats push their barges? Why are they called "stands" when they are made for sitting? Why is it called "after dark" when it's really "after light"? |
