A friend, originally Hungarian but speaks numerous languages describes English as "easy to speak, hard to write".

We really need a do-over with a better alphabet that allows a reader to know exactly how a word is said - one letter, one sound. Of course, I realise that it's far too late to work - even on our tiny island we can't agree on how words are pronounced.
