I speak 5 languages and english isn't on top of the list. The time you spent writing that novel could have been spent learning another language instead perhaps?

I was merely noting that you used a grammatical rule I have not seen in quite a long time.

sigh

5 -> five, english -> English (we are not Germans who insist on all nouns be capitalised but why not try it for a proper noun), novel -> diatribe. Possible missing ellipsis.

I speak roughly seven languages really badly and can fail to apologise properly in several others.

“An h*” is regional. Had a professor who said “an historic…” all the time, never stopped noticing it, though.
