    At least we don’t have honorifics (too bad) or gender based grammar. TELL ME WHY MY DESK IS MALE IN GERMAN. I also like our prefix, root word, and suffix system. Also, wait until you hear about “ma” in Mandarin. I believe it’s “Mom, What”, and two other things (it has been a while since college). It’s all "ma,"and the definition changes based on tone.
