The Cake is a lie.

English is already arguably the easiest and thus the poorest language the world knows, and Americans go on make it even worse, no wonder Americans are made fun of for being quite intellectually inferior.

No, english is one of the hardest languages to learn from an non english speaking country.

Stop being ignorant, and trying to cover your tracks because you thought colour was only way to spell it

[Raghna]

It is just to simple

too simple*
(apparently not enough)

Do you sincerely believe what you say? I live in Belgium and I've learnt French, Dutch, English, German and started to learn Finnish(in that order) and English was by far the easiest and I'm not the only one saying that.

For example: the English language barely knows what Conjugation is.

Oh well, what's the point of arguing with a Retard anyway?

[Jazcash]

I agree that English is one of the easiest languages to learn. However, I don't believe that makes it any more lacking in complexity in terms of vocabulary, meaning and language. In fact, I would say English is the language with the most depth and meaning compared to any other.

Disagree with me if you wish but I shall not accept your argument until you know every single word in the English language

How do you come by that logic?

That is discrimination and NonSanicsm that is. The correct term is Cognitiv Non standardised People, dont you dare using the term headcase or the mods will ban me, or you.

English and French are both shitty in that written and spoken language arent similar... Like for example you pronounce "read" differently if its past tense or current action.

[Jazcash]

Germany porced like nubs which allowed us to expand and eventually over power their porc.

Russia had noox but luckily we had anti.

France just raged.

[PicassoCT]

yet, still the people you conquered are haxxoring your left behind language to make it suit there needs - and all you can do is lean back and enjoy the rough ride on the landslide. :)

I won't deny that, but it doesn't make it less true.

Doesn't have any counterarguments so he just tries to discredit the other one with just some random blabbing.

[Caydr]

French and every other language that uses male/female differentiation of nouns needs to have their people get the "Canadian Residential School" treatment.

Stupid languages... English is a wholesale fail-stravaganza too, with they're, there, their, theirs', there's... homonyms and other words that non-native speakers/writers have so much trouble with should just be eliminated.

Then get rid of silent letters. And finally, all letters that have an ambiguous reading should be changed/eliminated.

Cars = Kars. Toast = Towst. Monitor = Moniter. Speakers = Speekers. *continues looking around his room* Keyboard = Keebord. Mouse = Mehws. Webcam = Webkam. Television = Telavijyun.

... Yeah well in my future utopia you'll come begging to speak my awesome language and then I'll be the one calling you a douche.

Actually, I've seen more English native speakers having trouble with those than others.
