The English language is weird.

It can be understood through tough thorough thought, though.
I think many languages have similar issues.
I had a Greek friend who always insisted that Greek was the perfect language because "every letter is always pronounced the same way" so once you learn the sounds, you can easily read / pronounce any word, even unfamiliar ones.
I said, OK show me. Out came a Greek newspaper and I got my first lesson..... didn't even make it through one paragraph before the "exceptions" started popping up. After a few more, I said "it's about the same as English".
He gave up and never mentioned the subject again.
