It doesn’t help that English isn’t one language. It’s several, welded together into 1 eldritch abomination. It also less borrows words, instead it pursues other languages down dark alleys, knocks them senseless, and rummages though their pockets for extra vocabulary.
The end result, while highly functional, is hellish to wrap your head around. Even native speakers struggle with it.
I’ll leave this here, as an example of how bad it can get. See how far you can get, reading it out loud, without fumbling a word.
