BTW English is a very easy language.
And very simple too compared to pretty much all other languages.

Linguists will almost certainly disagree with you on that one.

Why? It really is easy. What's hard about it?

English is a borrowing language. We take so many words from different countries that rules that apply to some words do not apply to others. Also, our grammatical style is very complex, so much that even native speakers talk incorrectly on a day-to-day basis.

Ex)

"Somebody lost their purse." <--Wrong

"Somebody lost her purse." <-- Correct

Hey, In most countries people dont speak correctly their own language, its very common here with spanish, people dont use it correctly and make silly mistakes, of course people that have better education wont make these mistakes.
