Does English need a regulatory body?

It's kind funny- The Other Wiki article compares modern Hebrew to Moroccan- same kind of idea of taking an older language and making it more European.

THE MOROCCAN DIALECT IS A LINGUISTIC DISASTER AND AN INTERNATIONAL EMBARRASSMENT. IT IS ONLY FIT FOR COMEDY, INSULTS, AND ORDERING PEOPLE AROUND. IT. SUCKS. BALLS.

Such rage Raw...Even I don't hate Spanish that much...Usually.

Long story. Of frustration. You can't philosophize or express advanced concepts in Moroccan dialect, people look at you funny and start feeling uncomfortable. It's really a basic, basic, basic piece of vernacular shit. A scrap heap. A wreck. An abomination. Killing it would be a mercy.

English proved that you can have two conjugations for a verb and it would be all fine. Not sure why other languages didn't, but this just proves English's superiority over other ones anyway.

Superiority how? I don't understand how people can talk about what is superior when they can't even tell me what a superior language would be.

For example, having multiple conjugations for different subjects allows the language to be pro-drop. That is, in, say, Spanish, you often don't need to bother putting the subject of a sentence if it's a pronoun, because it's implied by the verb.

But yeah, Tzetze, Double Illusion of Transparency, I thought I was clearly meaning "logical" as in "sounds like formal logic language" or "is formally consistent with logic".

What kind of logic? Because I can tell you right now that logic notation is no good for talking.

Long story short: Regulating a natural widely used language doesn't seem possible, but regulating a constructed language that has a long way to grow seems more likely.
