If it was up to Teddy Roosevelt we'd spell everything phoentically.

World would prolly be a better place.

Also, the MLB has the world series because the MLB features the best players in the world.

All the teams are US based, but the players aren't.

As for "the world being centered around the US."

Funny story... it actually is.  Kinda anyway.  More then any other country.

The US is like in the middle to late stages of being a sole superpower.  Like the UK at the height of the Empire or Rome.

ISo many people think the world is centered around it... because it pretty much is.

The US still holds somewhat of a hegemony. 

Now that's no excuse for acting like a dick, however the world more or less does revolve around the US.  I mean i thought everyone was blaming the whole world economig crisis on the US?

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

The main language I speak is french and it's definitely harder than english.

English is a very logical language that has very few exceptions compared to french for instance.

Did you know that each noun has a sex in french?

Unless the purse belonged to two people :P.

Actually all Indo-European languages either had or still have genders. Genders were dropped from English during the transition between Old English and Middle English I think. Actually, Middle English is noted mostly for it's french influence brought by the Normans. Overall I agree with your post. French isn't hard because of it's genders(which is pretty much second nature after using it everyday I would think.) It is hard because of how much conjugations there are. I've read that some words, although rare, can have up to thousands of different forms. By the way, I'm taking French in high school and hope to be fluent eventually. I remember there was actually a French speaking thread, but it never really pushed off like the Spanish one did.

So does Spanish and German, and tons of others, not challenging at all for me.

What does annoy me is how it is das Maedchen (the girl) instead of die in German (das is neutral and die is feminine) never got that. So I always forget and get it wrong...
