If you are one of those people who think their first language is much richer than the target language, English, this post is for you. No, it’s not written to claim that English is “richer” or better than your mother tongue. In fact, comparing languages is hardly right because each language is fabulously rich and wonderful in its own way. It’s like comparing varieties of strawberries—they’re all different, but they’re all strawberries – sweet, juicy, and delicious.
What we want to do in this article is show you some things that English can do that some other languages may not be able to. Please don’t be too critical if you find some of these wonders less impressive. You might think, “So what? It’s the same in my language!” If that’s the case, chances are you speak a Germanic language. English, a West Germanic language, shares similarities with its “siblings” like German, Dutch, and Danish. Nevertheless, read on. We hope this post will encourage everyone to look at English from a new perspective and discover something they haven’t noticed before.
