Why English is so Hard

We’ll begin with a box, and the plural is boxes; but the plural of ox should be oxen, not oxes

Then one fowl is goose, but two are called geese; yet the plural of moose should never be meese

You may find a lone mouse or a whole lot of mice, but the plural of house is houses, not hice

If the plural of man is always called men, why shouldn’t the plural of pan be called pen?

The cow in the plural may be cows or kine, but the plural of vow is vows not vine

And I speak of a foot, and you show me your feet, but I give you a boot – would a pair be called beet?

If the singular is this, and the plural is these, should the plural of kiss be nicknamed kese?

Then one may be that, and three may be those, yet the plural of hat would never be hose.

The masculine pronouns are he, his and him; but imagine the feminine she, shis and shim!

So our English I think you will all agree is the trickiest language you ever did see!

LoL

You're most welcome sister

I hate words such as difficult,hard,impossible,and so on.

There is no difficulties at all but challengings.

I know one of my friends who isThe Kingdom of Sweden
&
He speaks 6 languages very well.
:smile (98):

Then I said" wow, how come you have ability to speak all
these different languages without any difficulty". He told
me a secert which is
" If you are interested in learning a language and you like it"
Be sure that you will even acquire the accent...It was really
tremendous.

Later, I came to know that in NLP theories and hypothesis
have proclaimed that Humans mind have the ability to acquire 12
languages without any interference between them.

I was really astonishing knowing about that fact and it just gave
me a hope to learn French & Italian these days.

I think I talked a lot ...lol

:smile (24):

Thank you so much sister for your comment but Don't say

It is difficult any more ...lol :smile (40):

kindest regards

Hi Dr. future

As you said there is nothing impossible, no difficulties at all but challenging.
If I may rephrase what I said before ,I guess I should’ve said Arabic is more challenging than English.LoL

I didn’t know that the human brain has the ability to acquire 12 languages without any interference between them . I speak 4 languages and
I’ve notice that it is true, but I didn’t know that it could be up to 12 languages at once .Thank you for the information
.
By the way, I won’t say it’s difficult any more .LoL. and if you ever like to learn Spanish I will be more than glad to help.

Yours

Hi there

Motivation is one of the factors that has to be there .
but to say the truth , this factor isn't existing in our
education. Learners need positive reinforcement so
that they can learn any thing easily.And I hope in the near
future, we can see some changes regarding teaching methods.

Thank you sister for passing by
