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.

Here is why the quote is so true

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

Me sef no know o

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

Humanity

And lastly


12. Place the word “ONLY” anywhere on this sentence

She told him that she loved him

2. A fireman is not a man made of fire.

3. It is very difficult to staple water to a tree.
4. Drinking hot tea does not make you a hottie.
5. Babies are not born with clothes on.

6. By the age of 16, you have lived 8 years... twice.

7. Today is the day after yesterday.

8. The soldier decided to desert his dessert in the desert

9. The plural of box is boxes but the plural of ox became oxen not oxes

10. The plural of mouse is mice. I'm wondering why the plural of house is not hice.

You don't finish building, trust me. There's lot of thought in that quote. You keep building a building.
