I am a fellow deaf person who uses ASL as my native language. Even still today, some parents hesitate to learn/teach their Deaf and HoH (Hard-of-Hearing) kids the sign language because it would simply delay their speech skills while they actually do not. I use both speech and ASL but used it separately. And ASL and English are equal languages just like any other languages, either spoken or in signs.

I can explain that in German, French and Portuguese using examples: German: lauten = to sound, to be läuten = to ring zahlen= to pay zählen = to count rosten = to rust rösten = to roast die Masse = the mass die Maße = the dimensions French: ou = or où = where mais = but le maïs = the corn l'élève = the student élevé/élevée = high a = has à = at, to du (de + le) = of/from the (masculine) dû (devoir) = had to Portuguese: a caça = the hunting a caca = the poop a maçã = the apple a maca = the stretcher o cocó = the poop o coco = the coconut é = is e = and o bebé = the baby ele/ela bebe = he/she/it drinks

I'm kind of convinced the 'um' is not 'um' as in 'around', but rather as the prefix meaning 'changing'. Um-Laut - a changing sound. As in "sich umziehen" - to change clothes (whereas "sich anziehen" is to put on clothes).

In Germany weve got: Montag (Tag = day in German so thats equivalent to English) Dienstag (Diens apparently going back to Thingus) Mittwoch (Mitte = middle and woche = week which makes sense because wednesday is the middle of the week) Donnerstag (Donner = Thunder so we are even closer to Thor) Freitag (Frei = free but its actually named after Freya) Samstag (Because thats when the Sams comes. Just joking, apparently it comes from Sabbat) And Sonntag (Sonne = Sun)

The letter E in the english language only makes 2 sounds. Short e sound is "Ehh" like "Elephant". And the long E sound is "EEh" like "Eclipse". At no point does the letter E ever sound like "Uhh". Pecan, not puhcan.

And then you get to know the names of the days in Greek which are like the number of the day. Monday --> Δευτέρα = Second Tuesday --> Τρίτη = Third Wednesday --> Τετάρτη = Fourth Thursday --> Πέμπτη = Fifth Friday --> Παρασκευή = Production Saturday --> Σάββατο = (idk) Sunday --> Κυριακή = (the day) of the lord Yeah, Im not kidding, the word for Friday, literally means "Production" Saturday being Σάββατο, sounds the same with spanish, which is el sàbado.

ではなぜ人類の指は片手で5本なのか。人の手が魚のヒレから進化したためであると考えられている。流体内(地球上では主に水)を移動するとき左右一対のヒレがあると便利。このヒレの構造が5本の支柱とそのあいだの「水かき」の部分からできていることが重要。4本の支柱と3枚の水かきでは足りず、6本の支柱と5枚の水かきで多すぎた、そういった生物も存在したかもしれないが淘汰されてしまった(んじゃないかな)。海から陸に上がって生物が進化したと考えると仕方のない仕様。水以外の流体の海を持つ他の惑星でも「海」から「陸」に上がって進化したタイプの生命は5本指になる(はず)。つまり未だ見ぬ宇宙人も2本の腕を持ち5本指で一対の移動用の足を持ち脳と感覚器官を統合した頭を持っている可能性が高いんじゃないかな!!

Except what you're calling irregular verbs do follow predictable patterns. They're strong verbs. Ride-rode-ridden is perfectly regular within the class of strong verbs it's descended from. The patterns are not always absolutely predictable in Old English either. That doesn't make them irregular. The truly irregular verbs like go, do, and is were already irregular in Old English (and in Proto-Germanic). Have is a weak verb descended from "habban," whose conjugation is predictable. The theory about frequency of use is supported by the strong verbs resisting change, but it's change into weak verbs not "regular verbs." There's more than one kind of regular verb.

Language was created by our creator God. The first school was 4,000 years ago. Humans been on Earth according to science 2 million plus years. There are hundreds of languages around the world the word god is in every single one of them. That's because God wanted us to recognize that there is a god and he created language along with humans. If you isolate a human or humans from birth, whether it's one or 100 they will never be able to speak. If humans came up with the language they would have not put the word god in every language

Ah, isn't it exciting to talk about things we don't know. "We don't know much about this, so let's talk more about how much we don't know, so we can not know even more, and then talk about how people for centuries debated how much we don't know, but despite all those years of discussing, we still don't know."
