Like many things people are saying about English.
A big difference is the spelling of words and how they are pronounced, as opposed to Japanese. When spelling in Japanese all the characters are pronounced the same way every time. Just because the there is a different combination of characters, the individual sounds are still always the same. In English..... it many times seems random. I'm a native English speaker so its easy for me to know how to pronounce something but i can definitely see how it would be hard to know how to pronounce English correct. Especially with silent letters and what not.

Example: lets see here this is a simple one and is true for many letters.

The letter "C" can be pronounced many different ways ranging from a "k" sound to a "S" sound. like "Cake" has a "k" sound and "Cease" has a "S" sound. These obviously aren't the only words or letters that do this, its everywhere.
