Language isn't designed and built like a building, language evolves from the languages before it. The English language evolved from a number of languages, and includes words adopted from languages outside it's origins.

That is why all adverbs don't in in 'ly''; that's why all the rules have exceptions; that's why many words have very different meanings that aren't related.
