- cenazoic 4y agoIn English, think of all the plurals for which no ‘rule of grammar’ exists; you just have to memorize them. Moose -> moose Goose -> geese House -> houses Mouse -> mice Etc.
- asaph 4y agoIn English, the exceptions to the rules are arbitrary and numerous. English is also a moving target. From a logic problem perspective, English grammar is more of a practical brute force endeavor than an interesting one. When I read the article, I was wasn’t comparing the problem to English grammar, but rather comparing it to a logic puzzle that has a perfect solution.
