Why do u drive on a parkway and park in the driveway. Its messed up.
I find it really difficult when you make a movie where it is set in Russia and everyone speaks in English. It drives me crazy.
Why do we 'drive' on a 'parkway' but 'park' at a 'strip club'?
Why do 'slow down' and 'slow up' mean the same thing? Why is the third hand on the watch called the second hand?
'Y' is about the weakest letter of all. 'Y' can't make up its mind if it's a vowel or a consonant, can it?
I always thought those World War II films with German people speaking English with German accents was weird.
No important national language, at least in the Occidental world, has complete regularity of grammatical structure, nor is there a single logical category which is adequately and consistently handled in terms of linguistic symbolism.
