Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
It's funny, because I was never really taught English grammar, so I'll be damned if I know what form is what, officially...

Has anyone else taken any Japanese? I'm finding the grammar really interesting -- you seem to use the same word for "I eat" and "you eat" and "you are going to eat" and "I am going to eat"; and the same words for "What are you going to eat" and "What would you like to eat", which seems like it'd make learning it very simple -- but then it turns out it makes up for simple verbs by using complicated nouns.

"And that's why God Almighty gave us fire insurance and the public defender".
"I eat" and "you eat" is the same verb in Hebrew as well (though the "you" changes according to the gender, but it's still the same to the different "you"s).

Then there's the challenge of using different words for counting, depending on the type and shape of the thing you're counting.
