I have received pictures and a lamp to decorate my room. Hurray for yard sales! The lamp shade was spray-painted so it wasn't a hideously tacky pink. It is instead a rusty or cinnamon color. It's leaking that awful spray-paint smell into the atmosphere, though...

I just learned when, how and why use 'the' in English language. No more wondering what the heck that thing is :D

Polish lacks any articles.  It's one of the harder things for such folks to learn.  I know grown men who have lived here for years who still have trouble.

Oh. Didn't know that.

I know some languages are missing some pretty basic stuff that other languages just look at them and go "Dude, what?" (English included, I ain't no cultural imperialist! I'm CANADIAN!)

But I thought articles were like... REALLY REALLY basic.

THE MORE I KNOW

the more I realize that I haven't really learned much about the world beyond my own hundred kilometer radius area

Does English have a case system, or even a necessary subjunctive?  Noooo.  Stop yer imperialist complaining :P

Don't forget taht cases change according to the past/present/future (and others that English don't have names for) as well.

So in Polish, you have 7 cases, for 3 noun genders, for singular/plural, and you then you have to change them even more because of proper time :3

And that's why I look funny at people who claim English is not easy.

They say English isn't easy because it doesn't make sense. It's a mutt language that's a few hundred years old :P

Not my fault that English guys got curbstomped by Normans so easily :P

EDIT: Apparently, it's means both it is and it has. Woah. Such strange contraction xD
