My wife and I have been on board for decades :)
Next you'll be telling me I should pronounce the L in island as well!
fun fact: the S in island is completely fucking made up, the original spelling was "iland" with "i" being cognate with "ö" in swedish. It basically means island land and the only reason why there's an S in there is because some shithead thought it was related to the french word "isle" and felt that INCORRECT idea warranted changing the spelling.
Yep. It is indeed. ~~Same with the K in knight, which was added for no fucking reason.~~ Sweden also has an island called Öland which means island land.
"Knight" used to be pronounced with the "K." It was always there, it's not pronouncing it that's new.
i-sand... is-and... isund? iand? Ok, I give up, how are you supposed to pronounce it without the L?
I already do this with the word "solder" which confuses my fellow Americans greatly. They seem to think I'm lying that the L is sounded out in some other English speaking countries.
I just think the American pronunciation (SAW-dur) sounds wrong.
I don't solder, so I'm no expert, but I've only ever heard it pronounced "sodder" (though agreed, leaving out the "l" sound is an odd choice).
Out of all the different ways Americans pronounce words differently, hearing sodder is the only one that makes me cringe.
What area of the country are you in? I'm on the West Coast and the normal pronunciation is with the L. Pronunciations often depend on region though
You're not supposed to? Not a native English speaker.
No, the L is silent. Thank the French for that.
Geuss I ain't ever gonna pronounce this damn language correctly . You can't blame this on French tho because in that language it's saumon pronounced somon. They didn't drop a consonant in the middle of the word.
No, but you do pronounce it in salmonella. English is not a language governed by logic.
I speak Spanish and it's wild to have no many randomly decided silent letters in words. We have the H that is silent always, and that's it. We have Salmón, with the intonation in the o, and we of course pronounce the L. I can't even say salmon without the L while not sounding stupid.
You should see Fr*nch.
They only pronounce the vowels and once in a blue moon a consonant.
But it's systematic. In English, it's systemless, complete wild west out there smh
You weren't supposed to do that?
Oh sugar, I already do
Salmon in English sounds like semen in Spanish
Are the flavors similar too?
I don't know but id happily consume several kilograms of both
Got a question for you. What's heavier: a kilogramme of salmon or a kilogramme of semen?
You know what? You're absolutely right! We have no future, if climate change doesn't get us in the next 50 years, or the endless crushing of the working classes under late stage capitalism, then the rising new wave of western fascism will when it takes over.
Nothing matters any more, let's just do whatever we want <3
Just as long as I can simultaneously drop the'l' sound from salmonella
Partly wish I had Twitter in order to commend them on their choice of Frisky Dingo profile pic, but I'd rather pull the pubes off my scrotum one-by-one with tweezers than visit Twitter so it's not going to happen.
Anybody want to DM OP for me? Or get their pubes removed?
what
is it not pronounced /sɔɫ.mən/ (sol-muhn)???
SAM-in
I always pronounce the H in Meghan and the TH in Thailand in my head.
Can anyone say the s and the th in Isthmus? It's making my tongue feel funny.
As someone who regularly mispronounces this as rhyming with almonds I feel a little attacked
I also say the following wrong: Ikea, Nutella, idea. Somehow my bilingual brain just gives up.
