I don't know. I didn't notice this happening. A long time ago I was in a program and they tried teach me several languages and I couldn't learn any type of human language except can read Latin well enough to look in a Newton book. In German it has a word like "the". Except it is three words and they have genders and something about dative form and other really bizarre Clown Rules I can never remember.

If part of a language doesn't have information I have a hard time considering it because my goal is say information, not make a well-formed sentence from the language. It is even worse with languages like german where useless information not connected to reality is required in sentences (An inanimate object doesn't have a gender.) Why do some nouns get "der", "die" or "das"?

In this stupid Clown Language "the maid" becomes "Das Dienstmädchen". Why does it have so many syllables to say "maid" and why, if we are using a Clown Language that has gendered articles, isn't maid feminine? "Das" is genderless in one of the few spots where a gendered article might be comprehensible. Or worse "the gun" is now "Die Waffe". Why is my gun female? Why did this Clown Language make a system where I have to remember gun is female to properly talk about her? Why do I have to do this now with every noun in the Clown Language?

It would be nice if someone engineers a simpler human language where every word expresses information and none are structural. A simple international language for communicating about engineering and math and maids.

I think someone tried to make it with Toki Pona but learning Toki Pona was also incomprehensible.

>tl;dr: I hate articles.
