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?
