Funny though German has the more complex rules on the surface, English becomes the more complicated when counting all the exceptions.
English exceptions aren't so bad, you just need to know that there's a ton of loan words, what their origin was, when it was anglicized, and which country's preferred version you're learning. If it's not a loan word it's either standard or somewhat re-latined to maintain class hierarchy.
Oha, that's it?
