How would you change the English language?

    Well. A complete reformation. Wait...

    No, I've changed my mind. Just use Christopher Paolini's Ancient Language instead. It sounds so lovely <3

    I would remove the words "smell", "smelliest" and "smelly" from the English language.

    They are the worst words in the language. Ever. I hate them. That's all I'd do tbh, everything else is fine. :)

    I changed my mind. There's nothing to change on the English language. I would just like to remove something. What I want to remove is SWEARS!!!

    The letter C has really got to go. What's the point of it, for most of the sounds it makes we can just use K. For the soft C we can just use S. C is kind of a pointless letter.

    You need it for ch words though like cha cha cha.

    To be honest, I wouldn't want to change the English language, it's worked all this time has it not? If a person wants to learn it, they should take the time and effort to learn it even if it's difficult they will eventually get used to it. It's the same if we want to learn another language, that's the fun of learning another language!

    I wouldn't, really. It's my second language and although I still have problems knowing words and getting grammar right at times, it's such a nice flowing language with lots of variety and expressions. I often find myself thinking in English.

    Maybe if some ugly dialects went away... ;p there are some american dialects I really don't like. No offense ^^

    I don't think that there is anything I would change. Most of the sounds are easy to pronounce and I think that if it wasn;t my first language, it would be relatively easy to pick up. Then again, what do I know
