English Weirdness is a video series that explores and investigates the strange side of the English language, its irregular grammar, contradictory syntax rules, and even the oddities created by learners as they attempt to navigate the complexities of this language made up of Latin, French, Celt, and German influences. The series is the creation of English-as-Second Language instructor Paul Duke from Vancouver, BC.
