Who Says English Is Easy! by ThugLife1(m): 1:42am On Jan 01, 2008
So a 2 letter word has a hundred completely different meanings. So
what is this stuff about English being easy?

There is a two-letter word that perhaps has more meaning than any
other two-letter word, and that is "UP."

It's easy to understand UP, meaning toward the sky or at the top of
the list, but when we waken in the morning, why do we wake UP?

At a meeting, why does a topic come UP? Why do we speak UP and why are
the officers UP for election and why is it UP to the secretary to
write UP a report?

We call UP our friends And we use it to brighten UP a room, polish UP
the silver, we warm UP the leftovers and clean UP the kitchen.

We lock UP the house and some guys fix UP the old car.

At other times the little word has real special meaning.

People stir UP trouble, line UP for tickets, work UP an appetite, and
think UP excuses.

To be dressed is one thing but to be dressed UP is special.

And this UP is confusing:
A drain must be opened UP because it is stopped UP We open UP a store
in the morning but we close it UP at night.

We seem to be pretty mixed UP about UP!
To be knowledgeable of the proper uses of UP, look UP the word in the
dictionary. In a desk size dictionary, the word up, takes UP almost
1/4th the page and definitions add UP to about thirty.

If you are UP to it, you might try building UP a list of the many ways
UP is used. It will take UP a lot of your time, but if you don't give
UP, you may wind UP with a hundred or more.

When it threatens to rain, we say it is clouding UP. When the sun
comes out we say it is clearing UP.

When it rains, it wets UP the earth. When it doesn't rain for awhile,
things dry UP.

One could go on and on, but I'll wrap it UP, for now my time is UP,
so,
I'll shut UP,

I like this , I have something to add as well.

Why is it in English we say,
House and houses but not mouse and mouses?

Why is chair pluralized to chairs
but funiture is not furnitures,
equiment and not equiments
fish and not fishes

more to come
