The strange lawless
language —English

The following heartfelt poem was writ-
ten by a young student at Starehe Boys’
School in Nairobi, Kenya. He, like all
his fellow students, had tolearn English
in order to progress in his schooling:
“We'll start with a box — the plural is
boxes,
But the plural of ox should never be
oxes.
One fowl is a goose and the plural is
geese,
But the plural of mouse should never -
be meese.
On the contrary, the plural of mouse
is mice,
But never assume that for house the
plural is hice. 4
As the plural for man is always men,
Why shouldn't the plural of pan be J
pen? J

The plural for button is, of course,
buttons,

Then shouldn't the plural of mutton
be muttons ?

The masculine pronouns are he, his
and him,

But imagine the feminine — she, shis
and shir!

So English, | fancy, you all will agree,

Is the strangest language you ever
did see.”
