[P.O.E.]

The more difficult or complex the language, so develops the brain.

English is difficult to learn (compared to the Romance languages, for example) because it is a mixture of various influences. In Spanish, the letter “a” always has the same sound, while we have “a” as in “Kate”, “Cat”, “Caught”, “Cart”...so many exceptions. Spanish has few exceptions to the rule that each letter ALWAYS has the same sound.
