This is the problem with schools today. Okay ... take his premise that 'gh' is the same as 'f' because that is what sound we get in the word enough. But the rule is that 'gh' alone does not make an 'f' sound but it does when part of the 'ough'blend. Our language is not based on letters alone but also on specific blends. Here is a more widely known one, even today: "i before e except after c or when sounding like 'ei' as in neighbor or weigh." 'Ti' is not a blend that makes the 'sh' sound, but specifically it is the blend "tion" which sounds like "shun." He is not using the appropriate rules for blends. 😒 He is trying to be clever, but really he shows his ignorance of proper phonics. Growing up in the 80s, we had something like 13 charts on all the appropriate blends that we were taught in 1st grade (or maybe that was just for private schools .... not sure). Examples: St in stop Fr in frog Ar in star Ch in church Oi in point Wr in wrong Ing in painting Ould in could Etc "T" alone doesnt make the "ch" sound ... the blend is "ture" as in pasture or picture. There are oddities that seem random but still, you can't substitute the blends randomly. Example: Ear in bear Ear in ear (or weary) Ear in earth But you can't spell air as ear just bc of the word bear. There are rules.
I feel like Ghoti doesn’t work, because isn’t ti only pronounced “sh” when it’s tion And maybe same with t being “ch”, because it only really does that when it’s ctu, since ch is easier to pronounce that ctu Maybe I’m wrong though

As a non native english speaker I have to tell you that when you learn english it is in your best interest to not question why some word is pronounced the way it is
English is an Amalgamation of other languages, that is why it is the most descriptive, because you can express words whose meanings were formed in nearly every place that thought exists. That is also why it doesn’t seem to have a simple phonetic scheme.
@@matthewwaller8784 I wouldn't call english the most descriptive language but I get what you are saying. My native language is Polish and I can assure you there are much more grammar rules, diminutives and forms of verbs than in english.

@@parsley8188 yeah but they make sense because unlike English, French has spelling rules, combination of letters form new sounds, etc... Learn the rules and you can generally spell most words. In English meanwhile, there is none of that, they just borrowed words without taking into account the spelling logics English had. Probably related to the fact that English never had an official spelling/institution in charge of standardising the English language. Sometimes in English an entire set of letters are skipped in the middle of the word for no explanations. There are also words borrowed from French that originally had no silent letters in it that English added for some reasons.

@@parsley8188 nice try. We all know the French don’t exist
The fact this regurgitated shit is still getting thousands of likes gives me secondhand embarrassment
@@parsley8188 yeah but they make sense because unlike English, French has spelling rules, combination of letters form new sounds, etc... Learn the rules and you can generally spell most words. In English meanwhile, there is none of that, they just borrowed words without taking into account the spelling logics English had. Probably related to the fact that English never had an official spelling/institution in charge of standardising the English language. Sometimes in English an entire set of letters are skipped in the middle of the word for no explanations. There are also words borrowed from French that originally had no silent letters in it that English added for some reasons.

This is how the Irish name their kids

Welll- Seán and Sinéad are aren’t THAT bad
Kauywerlei is the name of my irish friend LMAO
Every time I see “Sinead” I immediately read it as “Sine wave”
Polish people just write random letters for example

Michael has come into contact with beings of a higher plain of existence and can now spell in 4D
Oh no! Michael come back to us! ❤
You’re spelling in 4D right now. Length, width, depth, time. We’re 4 dimensional beings already. He would have to be spelling in FIVE (at least!) 🤣🤣🤣
@@ericburton1244incorrect.
We can use clocks to perceive time, see time pass us by via days/weeks/months/years but not centuries and longer.
4th Dimensional entities can see *and* control time itself. They can easily move themselves from the beginning of the starting line to the finish line in what we would see as less than a second while we are still running along the track, like we would if we had the technology to break into lower dimensions.
All I can say to that is _Anuk Su Namun…_

Cats hold the forbidden knowledge
Like 15 years ago my cat typed a legit sentence while I was playing world of warcraft. She typed it in the guild chat, and everyone was really confused. Almost no one believed it was my cat. It was just a simple sentence like "this is it" or something similar to that. Still blew my mind though lol.
This is both fascinating and painful.

I need an entire language crafted out of this sort of insanity. It sounds like perfectly fine English when spoken, but when written, it looks like a code even Alan Turing couldn't've cracked
Aren't many languages like this? Though they don't use the same alphabet.
