Good evening to everybody. It is my second subject in this great forum. I thank all the members who replied and wanted to know more. I tell them: I'm here for you and only for you so if you have any question in English and its literature I'm ready
Today topic is about why English is the most difficult language in the world. Indeed it is and it is not but I wrote it to gain your attention. I'll talk about the difficulties of English but first let me star by a short introduction of English language in history
As human being's language, language changes all the time. This happens without our awareness. I will part English to three parts
1- Old English
2- Middle English
3- Modern English
These are the three parts of English. If we look at them we find that they are ordered in a chronological order. What's unique in English is that each language (middle-old-modern) starts and ends in a piece of literature. The old English started when the Celtic (the original people of England) wrote their literature. So it started by the famous work which it is Beowulf and lasted till Chaucer and his famous work Canterbury tales. When Chaucer started his works it was written in the Middle English. The Middle English lasted till the born of Shakespeare. His works was written with the modern English. From this point the modern English starts till now. So now I will make a small classification to make the idea clear:
Old English (Beowulf 8th century)
Middle English (Chaucer 1387 13th century)
Modern English (Shakespeare 1564 the birth of Shakespeare )
Now after this boring introduction we come to the second part of my subject which it is the difficulties of English language. I prefer to count them first then I'll explain them one by one
1- English is not a morpho-syntactic language like Arabic
2- Words order
3- Non pronounced letters
First of all, English is not a morpho-syntactic language like Arabic .do you know what is the meaning of this term??? Don't get upset!!!!I'll explain it. it is the segmentation between the verb and pronoun. In Arabic we've no segmentation in its pronoun so we sayسألتهاbut in English we say I asked her. So (I) is separated from (asked) and from (her). It is the difference. So we realize that in our native language we have what we call morpho-syntactic rule but not in English. It is the reason when we as tyros (beginners of learning a language) of English we convey the meaning from the mother language to the second language without taking into consideration how does it shape
Secondly, word order is one of the problematic elements that makes English difficult for Arab learner a language. It is so because of the order of adjective, adverbs, verbs and even the pronouns differ from the Arabic language. In Arabic we use VSO sentence (Verb-Subject-Object) but in English we use SVO (Subject-Verb-object) and this is another difficulties of English language
Finally, the last difficulty is the non pronounced letters in English language. In English we pronounce not what we see but what the word is pronounce according to its nation. For example eight the /g/ and /h/ are not pronounced. Why we pronounce ph as /f/ why /g/ is not pronounced in foreign and why and why…..ETC.
