    The music scales start with “do” (like a… a… a deer, a female deer). So naturally, the rest are “don’t”s.

      Ahh - that mostly makes sense…except it’s spelled doe

      ETA I guess it is spelled ‘do’ in do-re-mi-fa-so-la-ti but ‘do’ on its own wouldn’t be typically read or pronounced like ‘doe’.

        One of the maddest things about learning Spanish was trying to jam with people and realising they use this Sound of Music-ass bullshit to refer to actual musical notes (“this next song is in the key of ‘fa’”, etc)
