Oh most certainly but also I’m going to take every moment to shit on anything and everything the English aristocracy has ever done if it’s even the least bit stupid. I will shed the blood of Saxon men.
My problem ain’t spelling, it’s folks trying to “correct” my pronunciation. This is just one of those things wherein it’s basically a representation of me being tired of people trying to correct my dialect cause it’s not “proper” to say I hate that would be an understatement.
Fair enough, I will continue to get pissy at folks who tell me “It’s solder not sodder” I’ll cold sodder their fucken faces to the tarmac. Kinda hard to get out of the adversarial mind set on these types of things when your culture ain’t exactly doin all that well y’know? I probably am one of a couple hundred in my region with my old ass dialect that hasn’t remerged with American southern or standard SoCal.
Fair enough, silent letters are dumb but I really shouldn’t have pulled up the sodder shite, fucken thing is linked in my head for some fucken reason should’ve only used it as a dialect example. Honestly the only reason I haven’t gone and deleted the whole load of shit is because that’d be cowardice.
Who cares? The point is that the spelling is better for us now. Dialects exist. Universalising English is stupid.

I reckon there are probably more valuable way to spend your energy than on policing spelling.

I agree with this sentiment as someone from the north UK, you aren’t correcting me, you’re trying to erase my regional dialect.

No one in this thread did that. You were the one who came in hot insisting silent letters are stupid.

Haha, understandable, tbh. I had a similar reaction when I first learned how Americans pronounce solder 😂
