      English is an Amalgamation of other languages, that is why it is the most descriptive, because you can express words whose meanings were formed in nearly every place that thought exists.
      That is also why it doesn’t seem to have a simple phonetic scheme.

      ​@@matthewwaller8784 I wouldn't call english the most descriptive language but I get what you are saying. My native language is Polish and I can assure you there are much more grammar rules, diminutives and forms of verbs than in english. Sometimes you have over 30 variations of the same verb which may be also very confusing, but we don't write and speak in two different ways.

      @@parsley8188 yeah but they make sense because unlike English, French has spelling rules, combination of letters form new sounds, etc... Learn the rules and you can generally spell most words. In English meanwhile, there is none of that, they just borrowed words without taking into account the spelling logics English had. Probably related to the fact that English never had an official spelling/institution in charge of standardising the English language. Sometimes in English an entire set of letters are skipped in the middle of the word for no explanations. There are also words borrowed from French that originally had no silent letters in it that English added for some reasons.

      Let's be honest, English doesn't make sense. You write cat and prenounce KAT. But you also write Celsius and you prenounce C correctly. Then you write Crocodile but you prenounce KROKODILE. There's many examples and I think it's because of lack of letters for specific sounds you want to make while speaking English.

    • @jankan4036
      @jankan4036 Год назад +11

      @@filipnowak3748 the reason is history. The English were influenced by the cultures of Europe and learned to write from them, but, unlike German, they kept all the baggage that came with it. Then, on top of that, they had their own changes that happened to the language over time and didn't change their spelling. That and loanwords are how we got to where we are now.
