plz help
Lets see how smart dinkers are and help me out at the same time...
English is a horrible subject full of boredom and woe...but to the point.
I am supposed to think of an Oxymoron beginning with the first letter of my name...which is "J"..but my teach is satan and said i cant use jumbo shrimp...
If you would be ever so helpful and give a suggestion if you can think of one and maybe try and make one up with your own name.

job security
journalistic integrity
joyful trouble
Jump start
jungle gym
junior senator
junk bonds
junk food
just war
justice rehnquist
justifiable genocide
justifiably paranoid
justified rape
Hope that helps, and yes Merlin I used the internet, and English is the #1 hardest language to learn.

Some of those aren't exactly oxymorons:
jump start
jungle gym
junior senator
junk {bonds,food}
They mean different things, but aren't fully opposites.

Oh, and about English being the hardest language to learn, I doubt it. I would say:
1) The African language with the clicking sound
2) Chinese
3) Bosnian
4) Polish
5) English
6) Russian
7) German
8) Finnish
Lesse why:
1) Uh, I think you can figure this one out
2) Pronunciation and the alphabet. Voiced syllables and inflections are a killer. Trust me.
3) One word can mean up to 13 different things that are completely unrelated without pronunciation changes.
4) This language is soo fscked up. C's and Z's litter words.
5) Mainly all the idioms and word meanings.
6) Pronunciation is a killer! I know a guy from Russia who's trying to teach me Russian. OW!
7) Technically not too tough, but the fact that you can string 15 words together into one long string... Try translating these:
Oberammergaueralpenkräuterdelikatessenfrühstückskäse
Fussballweltmeisterschaftsqualifikationsspiel
Vierwaldstaetterseedampfschiffahrtsgesellschaft
Donaudampfschiffahrtsgesellschaftsoberkapitän
Yeah...
8) It's mad crazy.

Ya, but at least Russian is fenetik(pheonetic). Pity the words are so huge.(right Tyrsis ??)
Esperanto is the way to go!
Pity there is no where you can goto to speak it....

I'd say German and French are way harder than English. Also Dutch seems pretty tough to master.
German is tough for me just for the grammar. Of course, it isn't very easy to say all those words in a fluid sentence.
In Europe, finnish children learn to talk faster than in any other country...
...finnish children learn to talk faster...
So, that means they can say a lot in a short period of time

I can translate that German with ease. At least most of it and I only had German for 2 years.
Chinese isn't hard it requires a good memory, as does Japanese (which I am studying on my own right now).
Dutch is indeed pretty hard. Just think about all the rules concerning the "dt" at the end of a word.

There's but one concerning -dt: remove -en from the infinitive, and in case of "jij/je" before the verb or "hij/zij/het" place a -t behind.
Now irregular verbs... That's like hell, no matter what language. There aren't even rules for them you can remember, you'll have to learn them word by word. (which I can't).

I didn´t know how to say that faster thing... I´ve been reading english only 2 years.
