Oh, I don't hate anybody! [Except Rosie O'Donnel]

But seriously, it bugs me when you type like retarded chimps. I mean it SERIOUSLY bugs me. If I could reach through the internet I'd whack you with an iron monkey every time you did that.

That last post wasn't necessarily bad grammar. :/

But if that is the case, when I was 11 I would have been slapped countless of times.

Because it's a mish-mash of pretty much every other European language that exists (a bit of French, a bit of German, a bit of Celtic, a bit of Scandinavian...) with so many different rules, and most of those rules have loads of exceptions.

Thank you r for explaining that, there is so many exceptions and rules and other things I just can't remember them all.

I'm in chemistry right now, and my classmate Aaron just said, "Hey [my name], have I ever told you that you're the strangest person I've ever met?"

Me: "Nope, but I'll take compliments where I can get them!"

they say there are more exceptions than rules in the english language. but i never counted them myself

german isn't the easiest either. after 10 years, i still have problems with der - die - das, dem - den...

Yeah English is supposed to be classed as a "[&@%!]" language because it's made of so many languages.
I can speak English perfectly myself, it being my first language, and Im supposed to be relatively fluent in French and Irish but that ship has sailed Im afraid

Oh and for those who like interesting but weird things that are totally a joke , have a look at this:

The/A European Commission has just announced an agreement whereby English will be the official language of the European Union rather than German, which was the other possibility.

As part of the negotiations, the British Government conceded that English spelling had some room for improvement and has accepted a 5- year phase-in plan that would become known as "Euro-English".
In the first year, "s" will replace the soft "c". Sertainly, this will make the sivil servants jump with joy. The hard "c" will be dropped in favour of "k". This should klear up konfusion, and keyboards kan have one less letter. There will be growing publik enthusiasm in the sekond year when the troub lesome "ph" will be replaced with "f". This will make words like fotograf 20% shorter.
In the 3rd year, publik akseptanse of the new spelling kan be expekted to reach the stage where more komplikated changes are possible.
Governments will enkourage the removal of double letters which have always ben a deterent to akurate speling.
Also, al wil agre that the horibl mes of the silent "e" in the languag is disgrasful and it should go away.
By the 4th yer people wil be reseptiv to steps such as
replasing "th" with "z" and "w" with "v".
During ze fifz yer, ze unesesary "o" kan be dropd from vords kontaining "ou" and after ziz fifz yer, ve vil hav a reil sensi bl riten styl.
Zer vil be no mor trubl or difikultis and evrivun vil find it ezi tu understand ech oza. Ze drem of a united urop vil finali kum tru.
Und efter ze fifz yer, ve vil al be speking German like zey vunted in ze forst plas!

Then theres ebonics that gets thrown in. If i only i had a dollar for every time i heard "what it do son?"

The phrases get changed every year it seems. Its kinda funny because when i watch the european parodies of this its always exactly one year too late. Itll be any minute now ill see them sporting the nascar jackets and ill think "oh yeah i remember that fad."

Caz · Post by **Caz** » Mon Nov 24, 2008 8:54 pm

We gave up trying to grasp the language. Now we focus on butchering the language.
