Is the English grammar complex?

Question

Luis · Answer

In my opinion it is far less complex than Portuguese or any other Latin based language. Take for example the verbal structure.

Leslie · Answer

English grammar is fairly complex because it stems from two major language families that do not have the same structures. Modern-day English is influenced by Latin and Germanic/Saxon languages, and that is why we have so many conflicting grammar rules and a decent amount of complexity.
