Actually, English is an amazing language, with a vast vocabulary that gives its users an amazing range of expression. It isn’t perfect though, because it is a slow fusion of other tongues, Saxon, Norse, and Norman, chief among them, but adopting words from all around the globe. It’s messy and frustrating sometimes, but it more than does the trick.

Fourth son took my response. I think for anyone that already knows Latin and/or Germanic languages that would be able to grasp and appreciate the complexities of English.
