I agree that English is pretty stupid, and the fact that it’s completely non-phonetic is one of my biggest objections to it. But Hindi has some massively frustrating (and mostly useless) complexity as well. Having to pluralise both the adjective and noun in a sentence, and having different plural forms for feminine and masculine words is incredibly tedious to learn. Indonesian is the best language I’ve come across in this respect, it’s very simple and entirely phonetic. It’s so phonetic that the casual written form basically doesn’t even have the concept of “correct spelling”.
