English is incredibly regular in its grammar, especially conjugations. Even the irregular verbs have few forms. Hell, even with "to be". Present: I am, you are, he is, we are, you are, they are. Past: I was, you were, she was, we were, they were. etc.
There's a few irregular pasts and participles, but that's about it. >>2 hit the nail on the head, so to speak.
