I stopped trusting the English language

when my teacher said "Give her her pen" was correct yet "Give him him pen" was incorrect

English can be weird. It can be understood through tough thorough thought, though.

"Kembalikan pulpennya" makes more sense. Let's make Bahasa Indonesia as international language

Blame the Anglo saxons. They all got together, had a party and then created English.

English has rules that are easy to master, and exceptions in an infinite variety.

Give him him pen sounds weird though

English be mad dumb dawg, fo real.
It is funny that the possessive of the pronoun “her” is also “her” while the possessive form of the pronoun “him” is [b]“his”[/b].
On the other hand, in English only [b]people[/b] require gender pronouns whereas in other languages every item is “he” or “she”.
