As an American who's fluent in Mandarin Chinese and Korean, and has dabbled in 4 other languages, YES - English is the craziest language on Earth.
English has more dialects, foreign language cognates, and debated pronunciations than any other I've ever seen. But that's not even the hardest part - we don't follow the rules of grammar or sentence structure MOST OF THE TIME.
