1.English grammar exhibits both logical and illogical features. While some aspects align with logical reasoning, others are rooted in historical evolution, cultural norms, and pragmatic considerations. 2.Ultimately, viewing grammar as a purely logical system can be misleading.

However, English also contains irregularities, exceptions, and idiomatic expressions that might not always seem logical. While logic forms the basis of many grammar rules, language evolution, historical influences, and exceptions contribute to its complexity. read less

Is there any word in your mother tongue which has same pronunciation of an English word but different meaning(Homophone?) "Truth is stranger than fiction". A real incident which took place in Mumbai some 20 years back. An American landed In a foreign bank in Mumbai to do some audit work. He was provided with an attender to do a few menial jobs like opening/closing the door on his entry/exit.The American Officer found the assistant not closing the door whenever ordered to do so as he couldn't understand American accent.The American Officer made a complaint to Bank Manager. The Manager racked his brain and finally found a solution to this problem. He advised American Officer to say "There was a banker" instead of "Close the door". It worked out fine. "There was a banker" phonetically matched with DARWAZA BANDH KARO
