Funeral! Funeral! You dropped your brain!

Did I just waste my life raeding that bullshit? If English was a "natural language" then why isn't English spoken by everyone, and why are some languages, for example Chinese so massively divorced from English? And how can English possibly be a "natural language" when English itself is derived from so many languages before it?

Who says English is easy to learn? I would say English was pretty hard to learn given our stupid spellings, number of irregular verbs and words which sound the same but mean different things.

well french is not too bad. there is an excessive amount of grammar, but when you get to a certain point this makes it easier becos it follows more rules. english on the other hand is very wild as a language, ignoring trends and breaking rules of grammar all the time

but yes wot funeral said is total bullocks if there were such a thing as a globally natural language then it would be the only language spoken and it would always have been the only language spoken.

Im sorry but thats terrible.

Ive punched people in the face and see them curse in their native language as a first instinct... So there.

j/k... Although I dont suggest punching non-native English speakers in the face to see their reactions, try dropping freezing cold water on someone who is FAST asleep. See what language they start swearing in . People think/and react in the language closest to their heart, and most entrenched in their heads (generally their mothertongue).

yeah, i thought it was quite farfetched but, it is still an interestin topic, but, like i said, dont take it out on me, its not my theory

indeed...i'm fairly sure this thread was intended as spam. So yes.. farty pants

I think languages like German are stupid. French is okay, because it doesn't arrange the verbs and nouns so awkwardly.

It's not even an interesting 'theory', it's entirely bullshit and anyone that believes any tiny bit of it should be castrated and left to die, the mindless worthless waste of oxygen he or she is.

Furthermore, 'Everyone Loves English' is untrue and has little relevance to the claim 'everyone thinks naturally in English' (just because all people may think in English, which they do not, does not mean they love English). Given that, it is safe to assume that the title of the thread is wrong and misleading, which is a form of spam. So, if not for the blatant stupidity displayed in the first post, then the original poster should at least be banned for the type of spam that is a misleading thread title.

The thing is, it's so retarded that perceiving it as an 'interesting theory' makes a lot of us doubt about your mental capabilities.

That's bollocks. Many language groups, like african languages or asian ones have totally different constructions of phrases etc, nothing related to English.

In the earliest months of your life, you learn the language accent. The noises babies make aren't language-specific yet, but after that (I think it's around 18 months) babies make language-bound  proto-words. That's for every single language, and the clearest evidense that English isn't the only one that can be nested in the subconcious.

You can argue that every germanic native speaker have the same groundstructures for making sentences in their subconcious though. But even that is disputable.

Indeed, i think the real villian here is his teacher, who gave this person a job with such crazy thoughts!
