Question Details: If possible kindly tell what shuld I do to make it easier to learn and use ?
I have heard the the English language is the one with the most rules and the most exceptions to the rules. So Id say its confusing to learn if you did not grow up with it. My wife is from Panama and has been here since 1989 and still has problems with writing in English. We don't have a plural for you. So we have to say you guys or you all. Watch the second hand on my watch.Which witch looks more scary?

words like : through and though and tough
there and their and they're
then and than
accept and except
weather and whether
and so on!
Too much slang and abbreviations!
From the point of view of learning it I think the pronunciation is probably the most difficult. And the fact that every single rule of grammar and spelling has exceptions and the exceptions are never consistant.
So I would say that the main disadvantage of the English language is that it is hard to learn.

Learning any language is difficult. If we all learned Esperanto, which omits a lot of irregularities and slang, such words and irregularities would eventually develop.

People are creative with language and they all get changed over time.
