Stupid Spelling - letter C

Discussion in 'Chit Chat' started by Aquarians, Jun 9, 2024.

  1. Of all the letters in the Latin alphabet, "C" seems to be the most abused. How do you pronounce "Feynman–Kac"? How about "Cincinnati"?

    To me, "kac" is the act of producing "caca". But apparently it's pronounced "katz", just like the latter is pronounced "Sinsinnati" (almost all my life I thought its' Chinchinatti as in "chip", btw).

    Let's order "pica with calami" and a "gyros with cakiki". Are you a Sristian? The Germans started the blic krieg in WW2. The car of Russia isn't Lada but Putin :)

    For fuck's sake, write "tz" for "tzar" and "s" for "Sinsinnati" if it's supposed to be pronounced this way.

    They DO write "tz" for "tzar". The fact that you have been anglicized and have such a narrow view of the world, and do not realize that there are other spellings for czar, limits you in your enlightenment and happiness.

    In order to understand anything, you have to know the underlying foundation. Start there.
