EFLs, you have exactly ten SECONDS to explain why English is so illogical and absurd

To keep ESL's from mastering our language.

also the noun 'steal' exists as well even if it doesn't have the meaning
>this shirt was quite a steal
meaning it was very cheap

The noun "theft" is used to describe the act or crime of stealing, while "stealth" refers to the act of moving, proceeding, or acting in a covert or secretive way. Although both words are related to secrecy and surreptitious actions, they focus on different aspects:

1. **Theft**: This term specifically refers to the act of taking someone's property without permission and with the intent to deprive them of it permanently. It's a legal term used to describe the crime of stealing.

2. **Stealth**: This term refers to the manner in which someone might move or act in order to avoid detection. It emphasizes the secrecy and carefulness of the action, rather than the act of taking something.

Thus, while "theft" is directly related to stealing, "stealth" describes the secretive behavior that might be employed during a theft, but is not synonymous with the act itself.

What's with the weirdos who learn languages and cant just accept the way the language is set up??
I dont understand how you can see a word in a whole other language and think
"WHAAT??? THIS IS NOT HOW IT'S SUPPOSED TO BE!!1!!!"
Languages are always evolving, You know the retarded words zoomers use, that'S how it always is with people, they make shit up, use words wrong and it ends up changing the language over time.

Sorry EFLs were busy coming up with a sense of humour instead of autistically analysing our language
>>
>>200139844
No, an EFL would use the correct term stole. I think Diego is saying use whatever you think makes sense and people will probably understand anyways.

LOL.

'Steal' is 'stole' in past tense, but not 'stall' in future tense
>>
>>200140721
>Steal' is 'stole' in past tense
Other way around. Stole is the past tense, steal is present
There isn't a future tense, it would just be "will steal"
>>
>>200140844
Oh yeah.. I thought I typed it correctly.
Now there is, and it's 'stall'
