If you ever think English is not a weird language just remember that read and lead rhyme and read and lead rhyme.

But read and lead don't rhyme, and neither do read and lead.

A few and a lot are opposites. Yet quite a few and quite a lot, mean the same thing.

When discussing a small quantity, "few" emphasizes the smallness or scarcity, while "a few" sees it more optimistically, like "it's better than none."

Consider: "They had few options." vs. "They had a few options."

Either or either? Either.

"Month" doesn't rhyme, period. Nor does "pint" or "wolf."

For me, "spider" doesn't rhyme with "wider," but it does with "fighter."

Don’t you hate it when you read read as read when you meant to read read as read and not read, so you have to reread it so you read it as read and not read?
