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. . QUICKSAND can work SLOWLY Boxing RING are SQUARE and a GUINEAPIG is neither from GUINEA nor is it a PIG. . And why is it that WRITERS WRITE but FINGERS don't FING; GROCERS don't GROCE and HAMMERS don't HAM? . Doesn't it seems crazy that you can make AMENDS but not one AMEND? . if TEACHER TAUGHT, why didn't PREACHERS PRAUGHT? If VEGETARIAN eats VEGETALBES, what does a HUMANITARIAN eat? . 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 and FEET that SMELL. we PARK in a DRIVEWAY and DRIVE in a PARKWAY. . and how can a SLIM CHANCE and a FAT CHANCE be the same, while a WISE Man and a WISE GUY are opposites? . you have to marvel at the unique lunacy of a language in which you HOUSE can BURN UP as it BURNS DOWN, in which you FILL IN a form by FILLING IT OUT, and in which an ALARM goes OFF by going ON. . and in closing, if FATHER is POP, how come MOTHER's not MOP?
