Ok i was talking to a friend of mine about how everyone says Protuguese is so hard to pronounce. So soemoene sent us this example of how easy Portuguese can be compare to the English tongue stickers...lol
here is a sentene in Portuguese:
"Tres bruxas olham para tres relogios Swatch. Qual das bruxas olha para qual relogio Swatch?"
now in English:
"Three witches watch three Swatch watches. Which witch watches which Swatch watch? "
how about that?? iso is English still that easy ??

It's because english has so many irregularities.... so in most cases, the already numerous grammar laws are useless, and you have to remember things by heart.
I've heard once that normally, people can achieve a basic level of english only after 6 years of learning... and to be able to achieve a good level, people need to learn it for at least 9 years... and even then, not all would be able to speak fluently....
