Why is English so hard to learn?
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) The soldier decided to desert his dessert in the desert.
7) Since there is no time like the present, he thought it was time to present the present.
8) I did not object to the object.
9) There was a row among the oarsmen about how to row.
10) They were too close to the door to close it.
11) Upon seeing the tear in the painting I shed a tear.

Let's face it - English is a crazy language.
13.You cannot buy boots in Boots, You cannot buy virgins in Virgin,
14. You cannot buy threshers in Threshers and the Superdrug chain is a disappointment
15. English was invented by people, not computers, and it reflects the creativity of the human race (which, incidentally, isn't a race at all).
30. That is why, when the stars are out, they are visible, but when the lights are out, they are invisible.
31. And finally, how about when you want to shut down your computer you have to hit "START"!!!!!!!!

Queer, strange, abnormal........
