Why is the English language so hard? If this doesn't give you an insight, nothing will....LOL
1) The bandage was wound around the wound.
2) The farm was used to produce produce.
3) The dump was so full that it had to refuse more refuse.
4) We must polish the Polish furniture.
5) He could lead if he would get the lead out.
6) Since there is no time like the present, he began to present the present.
7) When shot at, the dove dove into the bushes.
8) The insurance was invalid for the invalid.
9) There was a row among the oarsmen about how to row.
10) They're too close to the door to close it, as were the other two there.
11) The buck does funny things when the does are present.
12) A seamstress and a sewer fell down into a sewer line.
13) To help with planting, the farmer taught his sow to sow.
14) After a number of injections my jaw got number.
15) Upon seeing the tear in the painting I shed a tear.
16) I had to subject the subject to a series of tests
17) How can I intimate this to my most intimate friend?
There is no egg in eggplant nor ham in hamburger; neither apple nor pine in pineapple. English muffins weren't invented in England or French fries in France (Surprise!). Sweetmeats are candies while sweetbreads, which aren't sweet, are meat.
If the plural of tooth is teeth, why isn't the plural of booth beeth? One goose, 2 geese. So one moose, 2 meese? Doesn't it seem crazy that you can make amends but not one amend. If you have a bunch of odds and ends and get rid of all but one of them, what do you call it? Is it an odd, or an end?
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 your 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.
English was invented by people, not computers, and it reflects the creativity of the human race, which, of course, is not a race at all.. That is why, when the stars are out, they are visible, but when the lights are out, they are invisible.
And finally: Why doesn't "Buick" rhyme with "quick"?

Love your way of thinking
I like the way you think about things... I've read a couple of your blogs (the random facts and the enlish language), and I really enjoyed it. Made me laugh. :-) That's something everyone can do more often. A few more for the English language... >He reached into the barrel to fish out a fish. >I can just picture the picture that she managed to take of that. >You can't stick a stick into a hole that's too small. >He felt a small prickle in the small of his back. >The movie star gazed at the stars. >He didn't want to drop a drop of acid onto his skin. >He can feel his sleeping companion stir as he stirs the soup. >The color blue makes me blue. >Please stand behind the hat stand. >This gold mine is mine! Also, why is Opossum pronounced "possum"? Lol. Just a few I thought I'd share with you.
