It is true, english is very much backwards. Most languages, including welsh you would say "car blue" in english you say "blue car"

Semitic languages are all very difficult to learn, even to native speakers. The only language I've had to use that I find harder than Arabic and Hebrew is Bosanski. Now that is a weird language!

Re: WTFF : Why I do a mental blocking on english ? Help me !!
Yeah I'm thinking more of Old Testament Hebrew, vocabulary of only 6,000 words, now that's my kind of language. I get on well with Semitic grammar though, personally, it makes more sense to me. And stative verbs rock!
Actually my favourite language is Sumerian. Ergativity is the best! And its genders are not "masculine" and "feminine" but "personal" and "impersonal".
