Great and funny examples of what makes English difficult! The spelling system is extremely irregular. I've learned a lot of words only by reading English (that you don't learn by watching Hollywood movies), and I have to admit that I don't know if I pronounce them correctly. 😅 English has several times more words than my mother tongue Swedish, and that makes it so fascinating - BUT I agree with the article: Why aren't there specific words for "the day after tomorrow" and "the day before yesterday"? Like "övermorgon" and "förrgår" in Swedish.
