İngilizce Neden Öğrenilmesi Zor Bir Dildir



Here are some of the reasons why the English language is so hard to learn:


1) The bandage was wound around the wound.


2) The farm was used to produce produce.


3) The dump was so full that it had to refuse more
refuse


4) We must polish the Polish furniture.

5) He could lead if he would get the lead out.

6) The soldier decided to desert his dessert in the
desert.

7) Since there is no time like the present, he thought
it was time to
present the present.

8) A bass was painted on the head of the bass drum.

9) When shot at, the dove dove into the bushes.


10) I did not object to the object.

11) The insurance was invalid for the invalid.


12) There was a row among the oarsmen about how to
row.

13) They were too close to the door to close it.

14) The buck does funny things when the does are
present.

15) A seamstress and a sewer fell down into a sewer
line.

16) To help with planting, the farmer taught his sow
to sow.

17) The wind was too strong to wind the sail.

18) Upon seeing the tear in the painting I shed a
tear.

19) I had to subject the subject to a series of tests.

20) How can I intimate this to my most intimate
friend?
Let's face it - English is a crazy language. There is
no egg in eggplant,
nor ham in hamburger; neither apple nor pine in
pineapple. English muffins
weren't invented in Englandor French fries in France.

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 Guineanor 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 you have a bunch of odds and ends and get rid of
all but one of them,
what do you call it?

If teachers taught, why didn'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 the verbally insane.

In what language do people recite at a play and play
at a recital? Ship
by truck and send cargo by ship? Have noses that run
and feet
that smell? How can a slim chance and a fat chance be
the same, while a
wise man and a wise guy are opposites?

You have to marvel at the unique lunacy of a language
in which your house
can burn up as it burns down, in which you fill in a
form by filling it
out and in which an alarm goes off by going on.

English was invented by people, not computers, and it
reflects the creativity of the human race (which, of
course, isn't a race
at all).
That is why, when the stars are out, they are visible,
but when the lights
are out, they are invisible.
And last but not least,

How about when you want to shut down your computer you
have to hit
"start".
