    IMO, the first statement is half-stupid, the second one is half-overcomplicated :)

    Welcome to English, my friend. No one ever claimed that it wasn’t a pain in the arse to learn :)

      :) no, it’s not, because for people to understand you you don’t need to grasp 75% of the concepts of the English language, and IMO, this is the measure of “pain in the ass” of a language. so still not even half as complicated as Ukrainian and not even half a pain in the ass as Ukrainian :)
