Things that are stupid about the French language

French is a beautiful language, sort of.

Actually no, I don't understand how a language cluttered with nasals and gross velar noises can be considered romantic, but whatever.

Here are some things that are dumb about this language:

1. Unnecessary punctuation

You know what this little hat means? "î" It means there used to be an 's' after the vowel. Does it change how you say the word? Of course not, that would make sense.

2. Numbers

This is probably the dumbest thing about this dumb language. Numbers. Do you know how to say 85 in French? It is quatre-vingt cinq. That translates into '4 20 5.' I know what you are thinking, "Oh, that makes sense because there are 4 20s in 80." NO IT DOESN'T MAKE SENSE TO DO IT THAT WAY. Why can't they be like every other language and just come up with a word for 80?!?!

3. Punctuation in numbers
You know how the rest of the world writes 2,500 like that. Not the French! They write it like this 2.500. That way everyone who actually knows how to use decimals correctly can get super confused. Guess how they write 2.5? YUP 2,5. Dear French people, A COMMA SIGNIFIES A CONTINUED THOUGHT. AGHHGHGGH.

4. Car means tourbus
I don't think I need to explain this one. Spanish managed to figure out to atleast say 'carro' when describing a car. The French had to be super difficult and use the word car to describe something completely different.
