English Flaws
I find English a very unpractical language that ever exists. It is not because I am seriously ESL, but it is because as a person who speaks 4 languages, 2 being fluent, I realized lots of flaws in English. Let’s start with synonyms. English is the only language that has hundreds of words that have the same meaning. There is even a synonym dictionary because even the people who has English as their first language don’t know all the words that exists in our world. Why did people create synonyms?! Some will argue that synonyms exist to make English more elegant, sophisticated, and beautiful language. B.S. If you are actually going to say that, only say it when you can get 2400 on SAT I THEN I will let you say that synonyms are necessary.
Capital letters are so overrated. Let’s look at Asian language for example. They don’t have any symbols that represent the start of the sentence either than the period sign. Even without the “Capital letters” they can speak, write, and listen without trouble. In fact, they don’t have to learn extra stuff in their own grammar.
Colour and color. Learnt and learned. What is the difference? One is used in commonwealth countries and the other is used in the United States. Really? Is this necessary? English is from England. Why did you guys have to change the spelling… Just to be different? Or is it because you hate UK so much. It may not sound like a big deal to all you English speaking people… But for people who are ESL, it is REALLY a big deal.
So let’s review what we can do to English. First, erase all the useless synonyms from the dictionary. Second, do not use capital letters. Lastly, use UK’s way of spelling not the American way. If these ammendments are made, then I will say that English is the best language that exists in the world.
