Languages cannot rule the globe unless we create a market and compulsion. Same is applied for English language, even though it has some shortcomings.

English is being widely used inspite of such so-called shortcomings. Such " shortcomings" can be found almost in all languages.

Teachers, teaching a a language; should need to empathise with proper phonological restructuring of the various heirarchical stratas embedded in its core teaching process before they transfer any asymmetrical opinion to the learners. Demographically proven.Chinese Mandarin is the most spoken language and not English.Its English that has taken our indian origin; overseas.

Is "I done it" correct English grammar?
No, there is a small correction. Instead of "I done it" you may use "I have done it" or "I did it". This sentence makes a proper english.

I read this joke some thirty years back. Judge Asked," Who has brought this allegation?" Plaintiff Replied," I am the allegator." There is no word 'allegator', Only alligator is there. Alligator is a reptile and resembles a crocodile. Are there any words,like Homophones, which make a conversation a satire,as shown in the above example? Homophones are words that have a different spelling, different meaning but the same pronunciation.
