Ah, yes, the spelling is MUCH easier. English is a conglomeration of languages and that makes it so capricious. I really, really sucked at learning Spanish, though. Only made it through my college Spanish class by using the movie Like Water for Chocolate for my final presentation. The girl on the horse scene--the prof loved it.Well English is sure easier than Spanish, in which all the nouns are either male or female and have to match the proper article.In English,there is a pronoun like "he" but also a "she". Then there is "his" and "hers". And so on. Why is this extra complexity? Did girls use to speak a different English from guys? Also, other languages have neutral genders, to increment the gender count to three. Is that because half of the speakers were slaves and eunuchs? What is the big idea for this stupid language grammar gender thing in all Indo European languages?
Spanish is easier. The grammar is more consistent and the
SPELLING------is very easy
