圣经说了，语言种类多，源自巴别塔，是神的旨意……

我也曾寻找最好用的语言，一度觉得R巨好。后来才知道还有lisp和haskell。可是工作了才发现这些都是不切实际的梦而已：语法好设计好不代表用起来好，合作起来好。有太多非语言本身设计的因素决定一个语言的实际应用价值。

正在学法语，越学越觉着多亏有滑铁卢一役，不然要是法语成了我们的第二语言，为了学它又得比学英语多死一倍的脑细胞吧。语言的变化反映了历史的变化，而历史的变化是建立在旧历史的基础上的，我猜这就是为什么语言历经几万年进化依然保留了大量的“惊讶元素”。

As an fake English speaker, here I come!

I think that many irregular forms exist already by Old English appears, and the latter was quite chaotic. Acutally, you can find some archaic traces on "alike" and "aloud" that may regarded as irregular adjective too. Only those following new words will be regular as soon as the language develops.

Fish is countable when you refer to it as an animal, but uncountable as food. Actually, many foods that can split infinitely often are uncountable, like bread, cake, chocolates, and so on.
