A retired teacher of English once wrote: English is a tricky language
There is no egg in eggplant nor ham in hamburger; neither apple nor pine in pineapple. English muffins weren’t invented in England or French fries in France.
Sweet meats are candies while sweetbreads are actually meat and non sweet.
We take English for granted. But if we explore its paradoxes, we find that quicksand can work slowly, boxing rings are square and a guinea pig is neither from Guinea nor is it a pig.
And why is it that writers write but fingers don’t fing, grocers don’t groce and hammers don’t ham? If the plural of tooth is teeth, why isn’t the plural of booth beeth? One goose, 2 geese. So one moose, 2 meese? One index, 2 indices? Doesn’t it seem crazy that you can make amends but not one amend?
If teachers taught, why don't preachers praught?. If a vegetarian eats vegetables, what does a humanitarian eat?
Sometimes I think all the English speakers should be committed to an asylum for been verbally insane.

To me, English is a confuse word on it own. It's not even stable.
We are the fast learning people in English speaking nations in the world, even though somebody that have no acquired formal education still speak English.
To me english is a king of complicated language.
Once my teacher told me dat an adverb qualifies an adjective and another adverb in a sentence
