[synopsis] => Investigate the illogicality of English by looking at everything from the use of the definite article, the, which is difficult to teach to nonnative speakers, to the blatantly ungrammatical "aren't I," which is the contraction for "are not I" and is preferred over the more logical "ain't I."
