M: Oh, all languages are difficult to learn。 But English does have two greatest advantages。
W: What are they?

W: Why is that?
M: Well, partly because English speakers have travelled a lot, they bring back words with them。 So English really does have an international vocabulary。
W: And what is the other advantage of English?
M: It that English grammar is really quite easy。 For example, it doesn’t have dozens of different endings for its nouns, adjectives and verbs, not like Latin, Russian and German for example。
W: Why is that?
M: Well, it’s quite interesting actually, it’s because of the French。 When the French ruled England, French was the official language, and only the common people spoke English。 They tried to make their language as simple as possible。 So they made the grammar easier。
