Why English Is Hard to Learn

In November’s issue of meryl.net newsletter, I included “Reasons why the English language is so hard to learn” (I don’t remember where I got it from, otherwise I’d happily add an attribution). Weatherly wrote a Haiku-like thang (obviously it’s not a Haiku since it doesn’t use 5-7-5) a few years ago, sent it to me, and gave me permission to print it here.

Clever, eh? My attempt at creating a Haiku with more reasons why English is hard.
