Is the english language too full of 'exceptions'?

Well pronunciations are a problem but honestly every language has its fair share of problems. I'm learning Spanish and some stuff seem really stupid or overly complicated. Of course I'm probably underestimating how many problems are in English because I'm a native speaker but there are still problems in all languages. And honestly changing the language would do more harm than good. I'm not up for relearning years of English when I'm already not that good at it.

Now American English pisses me off.

Spellin' shit with z instead of s removing random u's and saying shit like "garage" and "zee" and shit. Like get your act together. You guys are supposed to be setting the example for the world but I guess not.

Just making fun of how the things you point out with British English aren't really problems with the dialect and more just differentiations in spelling.

Also, the British being "the classy ones" is a stereotype; they're not "supposed" to be classy...

(sorry for the triple post but I think it's necessary since each post addresses completely different things)

Fortunately I have a good memory, so I can remember most of the "exceptions" to the point where it becomes kinda natural.

But like willflame said, there are much more complicated languages to learn (or so I've heard).

Also I love the fact that words like "cacti" exist.

Nice job mistaking "its" for "it's", despite being a native :^) (Also does should have "d" capitalized, same with "yes" and "i". And also, instead of the first comma, an 'if" would be more appropriate, since it doesn't really make any sense with the comma there.)

Well, while it depends on the language, you usually just have to add one more letter which is usually the same, so you just have to memorize the feminine & masculine words and (those letters too, of course)then, well, it won't be exactly easy (I guess), but it will be easier, thus making some progress on the respective language. Although, in languages like French, most of the times, the feminine is (pronunced) the same as the masculine, obviously not always, but still.

English is a Romance language ?


K, so after stating my opinion on these people's posts, here's my opinion on this thread('s question):

Why's everyone (acting) like English is even hard (for a language)? Every language has its exceptions (and depending on the language, a lot more than English does) and as for English, a few exceptions don't make the language hard or anything.

And your stereotype is wrong cuz I don't have a sister :triumph:

Well, i guess it is, but still, English is my favorite language (i know three languages btw) and although all of the exceptions suck, i actually got used to them, since i've been watching english YT, i'm writing english RIGHT NOW and through all of that trial and error, i've finally mastered this language.

So to answer the question, yes it's full of them, but i don't really mind.
