This has probably already been posted before but I'm just shooting this into the dark here. What word in the English language do you hate the most? The two words I hate are cantaloupe and upset.

Fanny-Pack.

Is that one word, or two?

Do you mean the usage rather than the word itself? Like, when someone can't say a sentence without repeating the word 'like' like a couple of times, it gets irritating like hell.

"Wake up". "wanker". "like". Any internet/text speak.
That's pretty much it.

Any type of text speak, "like"(only when you reapeat it a lot of times in the same sentence), "Homie", "Da-Burgh"(slang for Pittsburgh), and lots of other slang terms.

I hate the word handwriting. I write messily so whenever someone says" Write neater handwriting" I want to throttle them.

And genre, because it just annoys me for some reason.

Facilitate.Facilitated.Facilitating.

Nothing is "helped" anymore. Every thing is facilitated as if it is broken and needs fixed. Not everything is broken. If a friend needs five bucks and you give it to him you are helping him. He is not broken! However, people still feel the need to use the word FACILITATE!

I hate the English language in its entirety. No other language has no set of rules regarding the pronunciations of words. Why is wicked pronounced [wick ed] and not [wicked]? Why can't it be pronounced like picked, or licked, or kicked? Why is the 'k' silent in words like knife, knight, or know? What about gnat, gnarl, or gnash? Also, why is it that the adjectives come before the nouns is given? In all other languages, the noun comes first and then the description. Isn't the noun more important than the description? Would you rather know if your death was gruesome or not or how was your death?

English is a primitive language, and it pains me that Latin didn't survive but a language as filthy as English lasted.
