    On dhat note, dhe English language is kwite inkonsistent on letter pronunsiashion. I think it kould do widh a refresher on how letters work or just do a round of simplifikashion on sounds instead of being a Frankenstein fokusing on where the word kame from.

      Ah, but see, the beauty of the English language is that 50% of the time we don’t actually care whether something is spelled properly unless it’s formal academic writing or something official. We can make do with whatever, and guesstimate our way through almost anything!

          Yeah, it IS cool! Even cooler is learning how language and words has evolved over time. A word you thought you knew might have had completely different meaning a few years or a century ago, and often gives a hint about the culture back then. If I redid my life, I would love to have become a language researcher.
