In Response to Kelly Richardson's Blog

She had a very insightful look at Chapter 9, and my response is this - I don't know why people would want English to be the world language, being that it has so many rules and seemingly more ways in which those rules can be broken. (Did that make any sense). But it is fun to see how English has adopted so many words from other languages (just thought of a little display on Ellis Island that shows this) and how little thought we give to their origins. Great post though, I didn't catch the difference of opinion between the two chapters until you brought it up.
