working hard cant kill you but why take the risk? for those who say english is easy.. The English Plural according to .... We'll begin with a box, and the plural is boxes, But the plural of ox becomes oxen, not oxes; One fowl is a goose, but two are called geese, Yet the plural of moose should never be meese; You may find a lone mouse or a nest full of mice, Yet the plural of house is houses, not hice. If the plural of man is always called men, Why shouldn't the plural of pan be called pen ? If I speak of my foot and show you my feet, And I give you a boot, would a pair be called beet ? If one is a tooth and a whole set are teeth, Why shouldn't the plural of booth be called beeth ? Then one may be that, & three would be those, Yet hat in the plural would never be hose; And the plural of cat is cats, not cose. We speak of a brother & also of brethren, But though we say mother, we never say methren. Then the masculine pronouns are he, his & him, But imagine the feminine: she, shis & shim ! 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 England . We take English for granted, but if we explore its paradoxes, We find that quicksand can work slowly, boxing rings are square; A guinea pig is neither from Guinea nor is it a pig. Why is it that writers write, but fingers don't fing, Grocers don't groce & hammers don't ham ? 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 people who speak English Should be in an asylum for the verbally insane. In what other language do people recite at a play, and play at a recital ? We ship by truck but send cargo by ship ... We have noses that run & feet that smell; We park in a driveway & drive in a parkway. And how can a slim chance & a fat chance be the same, while a wise man & 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, & in which an alarm goes off by going on. And in closing .... If Father is Pop .... how come Mother's not Mop ? ? ? ?

i just do me.
