The English Language Is a Giant Meme..

Ever wanted to learn English? Here's a tip: don't.

Silent letters that serve no purpose. Words that are spelled the same but mean completely different things. Rules that have more exceptions than actual rules. Triple contractions that sound like a glitch in the language.

English isn't just hard to learn. It's a beautifully chaotic mess that somehow became the most spoken language on the planet.

But how did we get here? How did a language this illogical, this inconsistent, this downright absurd become the global standard? And what does the madness of English reveal about the people who created it?

This episode is a funny, fascinating, and slightly frustrating journey through the weirdest language on Earth. Whether English is your first language or your fifth, you'll never look at it the same way again.
