Perception vs Conception: Because English has never been fully accepted az a language by many European Scholars, gives
me the opportunity to pronounce the word "know" az k'now instead az no. I wuz told that the k in the word iz silent. My learn'n question then iz, which ing not King for the k iz silent started such English expression? If the k iz silent then how should the word know be pronounced? Definitely not "no"!
I'm have'n so much fun spell'n and pronouncing words phoneticly.
English iz not a perfect language and it iz evolving perhaps yearly. I'm so glad to be part of it all, especially on the internet. Aren't U?

know word has been derived from the word knowledge.
knowledge has the same spelling in the beginning so "know" makes complete sense.
