English is the only language that breaks it own rules more than any other language. That is all.
Quite funny.
Excuse me for ranting though.
From my expirience everybody wants their language to be the hardest to learn (don't ask me why :>).
Or at least Americans (I don't know many other English speaking people, so I can't really say anything about other nations)
English just is one of the easiest languages there is.
When I talked to some people about that subject they always say 'there are words with multiple meanings wich makes it so hard to learn'.
This is a difficult part of the language. Agreed. But it's just such a small fraction!
In German you have to learn a different article for every word. In French you have a crazy amount of different forms and tenses of a verb. Much harder then that.
I'm done.
English seems to be hard for Americans, too. My cousin went to america for one year and had better grades in english than the people living there since they were born.

Well usually teachers grade based on effort shown, not always whether or not everything they do is right (especially in highschool and below). Obviously they're not going to fail everyone who speaks English as a second language but if the effort is there, they'll get the grades.
