it lost damn near all grammatical structures (rendering it simple)

But not consistent

and therefore depends on rigid (consistent) word ordering (structure).

yeah, having one aspect have rules but other parts descend into complete chaos because it's a bastard langauge doesn't make english consistent

    English is a vibes based language with lose grammer and spelling that enables people who speak wildly different native languages ti fairly effectively communicate. It's the giant bin of random Lego pieces of human languages. It's unruly, but anyone can pick it up fairly quickly and get to work.

    yes. which is why it sucks. It's like, yeah a swiss army knife is pretty cool I guess, but I don't want to debone and chop up a chicken into cubes with it.
