The transmitted/inherited wisdom of the ages. The multifaceted richness of expression possible in English. Sir Max Beerbohm once said that in Shakespeare, every word casts a purple shadow.

I like the english language when used in poetry and literature because it transports me to other places. I can express myself with the written words when I cannot say them. English is like music to those who like it, it is a gift that flows through the pen in literature.

I like English language because, it has so much words, from other languages, combined, to make another word. And, it is not hard to learn. French’s my first language, and i’m planning on learning Spanish, too.
