        I wish these people were on mute once in a while.

      The opposite of when you mispronounce a word because you’ve only read it in books.

      These dummies don’t read and heard this word wrong.

        I learned the word “moot” from Star Wars Knights of the Old Republic 2: The Sith Lords on PC. I am wondering if I am more of a dummy or less of a dummy than someone who learned the word from reading and someone who learned the word from hearing it.

          I learned this word in a rather unusual way. One day as a bored teenager, I was sitting around thinking of funny sounds that could pass as real words. “Moot” came into my head and, out of curiosity, I decided to look for it in a dictionary.

          Needless to say, it became a new favorite. Moot. Moot. All these years, and it still sounds funny to me.
