Why doesn't flatulence sound like busting ass? Just cause.

I dont think English is that complicated, but yea I got hundreds of ways of saying something in French, and only a few in English.

and that thing you say about ''ly'' yea we can do that in French with adverbs, with the ''ment'' ending. Would be great in English, but I guess its just not meant to be.

[Snorbel]

In case it hasn't been pointed out, the adverbs are as follows:

brotherly -> brotherly
holy -> holily
friendly -> friendly

That is to say, he smiled friendly at me. And then I brotherly knocked his teeth out as he looked holily into the sky.
