Let´s face it: 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 RINGS are SQUARE, and a GUINEAPIG is neither from GUINEA  but nor it is 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 seem crazy that you can make AMENDS but not one AMEND?. If TEACHERS TAUGHT, why didn´t PREACHERS PRAUGHT?. If a VEGETARIAN eats VEGETABLES, 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?.
