谁来翻译一下啊 这段英语文章不要像翻译机一样的吐槽
English is the most widely used language in the history of our planet. One in every seven human beings can speak it. More than half of the world’s books and three quarters of international mail are in English. Of all languages, English has the largest vocabulary — perhaps as many as two million words.        However, let’s face it: English is a crazy language. There is no egg in an eggplant, neither pine nor apple in a pineapple and no ham in a hamburger. Sweet-meats are candy, while sweetbreads, which aren’t sweet, are meat.        We take English for granted. But when we explore its paradoxes (探讨它的矛盾), we find that quicksand can work slowly, boxing rings are square,  public bathrooms have no baths in them.        And why is it that a writer writes, but fingers don’t fing, grocers don’t groce, and hammers don’t ham? If the plural of tooth is teeth, shouldn’t the plural of booth be beeth? One goose, two geese — so one moose, two meese?        How can a slim chance and a fat chance be the same, while a wise man and a wise guy are opposites? How can overlook and oversee be opposites, while quite a lot and quite a few are alike? How can the weather be hot as hell one day and cold as hell the next?        English was invented by people, not computers, and it reflects (反映) the creativity of human beings. That’s why, when stars are out, they are visible (能看见的); but when the lights are out, they are invisible. And why, when I wind up my watch, I start it; but when I wind up this essay, I end it.

英语是世界上应用最多的语言.七个人里就有一个会讲英语.世界上有超过一半的书和超过四分之三的国际邮件都是用英语写的.相比所有语言,英语拥有最大的词汇量——大约有20亿单词.但是,不得不承认英语是一门疯狂的语言.茄子里面没有鸡蛋,菠萝里面既没有饼也没有苹果.后面解释这种矛盾 .学习英语不能想当然,英语是人们发明的,而不是电脑发明的;它反映了人类的创造性.
