Wher, wher what/ What is "wher". If you meant "where", then you should have said so. You have at least had the opportunity to learn to read, or to learn vocabulary words haven't you? Were you taught to talk, and to understand word spelling by the "see and say" method? I have always preferred the phonetics way. Only lazy teachers use "see and say".
As one respondent has already said, Google it, or better yet, get it out of a book, like an encyclopedia. You know, those large heavy books that seemingly take forever to find anything in. Try them out, there is a lot of good information in them.

Whitney's mother, Elizabeth Fay, died in 1777, when he was 11.[2] At age 14 he operated a profitable nail manufacturing operation in his father's workshop during the Revolutionary War.[3] Because his stepmother opposed his wish to attend college, Whitney worked as a farm laborer and school teacher to save money. He prepared for Yale at Leicester Academy...(now Becker College) and under the tutelage of Rev. Elizur Goodrich of Durham, Connecticut, he entered the Class of 1789, and graduated Phi Beta Kappa in 1792.[1][4] Whitney expected to study law but, finding himself short of funds, accepted an offer to go to South Carolina as a private tutor. Petition by Whitney to the selectmen of Westborough to run a public school, with sample of his penmanship Instead of reaching his destination, he was convinced to visit Georgia.[3] In the closing years of the 18th century, Georgia was a magnet for New Englanders seeking their fortunes (its Revolutionary-era governor had been Lyman Hall, a migrant from Connecticut). When he initially sailed for South Carolina, among his shipmates were the widow and family of Revolutionary hero, Gen. Nathanael Greene of Rhode Island. Mrs. Greene invited Whitney to visit her Georgia plantation, Mulberry Grove. Her plantation manager and husband-to-be was Phineas Miller, another Connecticut migrant and Yale graduate (Class of 1785), who would become Whitney's business partner.
