I remember I had 3 main reasons to love it.
(really needed reasons to love English.
it was easy to fall in love with Italian and Portuguese.
but English. well, two of us had some issues.)
*when you talk about yourself, you use - a capital letter.
I guess that's the only way (for me) to learn that I! am important (in love with grammar :))
*there's that great word English has - present.
a gift, an awareness and now. nothing special and at the same time - everything in just one word.
*and then. that dragon/kite thing. well, they do see a difference.
in Croatian we say 'zmaj' for both of those meanings.
sometimes a zmaj needs his own word, you know?
like children need their own room.
- - -
one more reason. way beyond those 3.
never saw a language so playable as English is.
if I learn enough words... it can be like Lego.
it can become my favourite tool ever.
if I give us that chance.
