An easy and a difficult lenguage at the same time.

English has been the universal language for communication in the actual globalized world, for doing business, international politics meetings and diplomacy issues (British magazine). One reason for why English is the universal idiom is because some people says is easy to learn, but on the other hand is difficult to master. It is easy in sense like the personal pronouns for example, are simple to learn than others tongues, because there are few and in some cases does not make difference if the noun is masculine or female. However, can be a bugbear in the way like a gap between pronunciation and spelling, the grammar is particular strange, and the language has a lot of verb conjugation like irregular verbs and regular verbs. Other problem for the English idiom, is it has a lot of version depending of the place where is speaking, and some native speakers have serious problems to understand between they. Also sometimes English is so complex, like if you put together two different words , the meaning can change in a significant form. A consultant for Interbrand John Simmons, put for example the word “set”, which has different meanings depending the context or situation where it used. We have “Set Aside”, “Set Aside”, ‘’Set Up”, ‘’Set Down”, “Set In”, ‘’Set On”, etc… In Hence English can be easy to learn in some aspect, but very difficult to process can be difficult to understand (British Magazine)
