y do kansas say kane west and not kanye?

Answer 1

Because the mind sees a word as a picture, not letter by letter. For example, I can wtire the lterets in a wrod in any oderr and you can slitl raed it as lnog as the frsit and lsat lteters are in the crorcet pcleas. So when people see Kanye, it looks like Kayne, unless they study it letter by letter.
