| [00:02.600]00:00.00] | English as a Crazy Language |
| [00:09.950]00:10.28] | Let ’s face it —English is a crazy language. |
| [00:15.230]00:16.73] | There is neither egg in eggplant nor ham in hamburger; |
| [00:21.590]00:21.43] | neither apple nor pine in pineapple. |
| [00:23.850]00:24.71] | English muffins weren ’t invented in England or French fries in France. |
| [00:30.280]00:30.41] | Sweetmeats are candies while sweetbreads,which aren ’t sweet,are meat. |
| [00:36.900]00:36.97] | We take English for granted. |
| [00:39.650]00:39.81] | But if we explore its paradoxes, |
| [00:42.00]00:42.43] | we find that quicksand can work slowly, |
| [00:46.430]00:45.61] | boxing rings are square and a guinea pig is neither from Guinea nor is it a pig. |
| [00:53.600]00:52.39] | If the plural of tooth is teeth, |
| [00:55.410]00:55.89] | why isn ’t the plural of booth beeth? |
| [01:00.780]00:59.98] | One goose,two geese. |
| [01:01.840]01:02.61] | So one moose,two meese? |
| [01:04.210]01:05.13] | Doesn ’t it seem crazy that you can make amends but not one amend, |
| [01:09.770]01:11.14] | that you comb through annals of history but not a single annal? |
| [01:13.600]01:15.95] | If you have a bunch of odds and ends and get rid of all but one of them, |
| [01:22.210]01:21.53] | what do you call it? |
| [01:24.650]01:23.28] | Sometimes I think all the English speakers should be committed to an asylum |
| [01:28.590]01:29.50] | for the verbally insane. |
| [01:30.510]01:31.04] | In what language do people recite at a play and play at a recital? |
| [01:36.80]01:36.95] | Ship by truck and send cargo by ship? |
| [01:41.120]01:41.43] | Have noses that run and feet that smell? |
| [01:45.970]01:45.70] | Park on driveways and drive on parkways? |
| [01:50.270]01:51.50] | How can a slim chance and a fat chance be the same, |
| [01:56.680]01:56.75] | while a wise man and wise guy are opposite? |
| [02:01.860]02:01.67] | How can the weather be hot as hell one day and cold as hell another? |
| [02:07.290]02:08.56] | English was invented by people,not computers, |
| [02:11.400]02:12.83] | and it reflects the creativity of the human race. |
| [02:16.130]02:16.54] | That is why,when the stars are out,they are visible, |
| [02:20.120]02:20.81] | but when the lights are out,they are invisible. |
| [02:23.680]02:24.31] | And why,when I wind up my watch,I start it, |
| [02:29.300]02:28.58] | but when I wind up this essay,I end it. |
