You guys oughta try ARBABIC sometime! Now THERE'S a language that will confuse you. They have about a thousand (literally) different words for camel, depending on gender, age, whether a female is pregnant (for how long she's been pregnant), its color...... etc etc etc. I keep trying to learn it but I always end up blithering.
Worse than that, you can study Yemeni Arabic for several years, go to Egypt, and be totally lost!
