So a girl in my class just said that it’s stupid that the word Cis exists because we should just call it normal
Kaz would absolutely be the kind of parent who refuses to baby talk his children and just respond to all of their babbling like it's a normal conversation.
Kanej baby: *incoherent string of sounds*
Kaz: An excellent point, but if we invest that into expanding Fifth Harbor, we can capitalize on the increased traffic to the gambling halls and raise profits by at least a third.
Baby: *coos*
Kaz: Precisely.
Wylan: *eating cinnamon roll*
Jesper: cannibalism
Wylan: *confused chewing noises*
Nina: rules are made to be broken!
Matthias: Rules are meant to be followed, nothing is made to be broken
Jesper: Uh, piñatas?
Wylan: glow sticks
Inej: Karate boards
Y/N: Spagetti when you have a small pot
Kaz: The neck of our enemies
Matthias:
Kaz: and that concludes our plan for this heist.
Kaz: let's see if you were all paying attention.
*kahoot music starts*
Wylan: arson is never the answer
Wylan: it's the question
Wylan, holding a lighter: and the answer is yes
Wylan: You killed her!
Inej: Actually I believe she died of natural causes
Body on the floor, knife sticking out of the neck:
Wylan: ???
Inej: There is nothing more natural than dying from a knife to the neck
Kaz, nodding: What would be unnatural is if she had survived
An explosive expert is always useful.
New cast members: "Hi! We are so excited to-"
Ben Barnes: "adopted"
You will not believe the amount of times I’ve read an English word and thought of a pronunciation and then continued to pronounce the word that way in my head for years only to discover that it has a completely different pronunciation and I would’ve made a fool of myself if I had ever pronounced that word out loud
It’s a phenomenon unofficially known as “reader’s accent” and it’s very common! Because English has so many words (in fact considered to be the language with the greatest number of words) lots of people, and in particular those who read a lot as children, will encounter a word in writing long before they hear it spoken. They’ll develop the idea of what the word will sound like in their head, and only realize when they hear it spoken that their idea was different than the common pronunciation.
I’ve even had it where I’ve known words as spoken words, and I’ve known words as written words, and it’s taken me a significant amount of time to realize that they were the same word. One example I can think of is the word indictment. I always thought “indictment” was pronounced “in-dict-ment,” and it was only when all these police indictments started happening on the news (with the news crawls below the words being spoken) that I realized it was “in-DITE-ment.”
So yeah, never feel bad for discovering that a word in English is pronounced differently than you would’ve expected. English has had influence from SO many other languages over the centuries as it developed, and as a result, many of our pronunciation “guidelines” are borrowed from the languages the words originally came from. It’s massively inconsistent, and it’s one of the reasons that learning English as a second language is so difficult.
As my favorite poster in the campus writing center used to proclaim:
“English: A language that lurks in dark alleyways, beats up other languages, and rifles through their pockets for spare vocabulary.”
it wasn’t until an adult that I realized that colonel and spoken word “kernal” were the same word
“soldering” as “sautering”
I used to pronounce “epitome” (e-pit-oh-me) as “epitome” (epi-tom) and only learned that it was wrong when my mom said it out loud
“cordial” was definitely for a long time for me (cor-dial) and not (cor-gial).
the peeved look on my face when i realized segue and Segway are pronounced the same
You don’t want to know how I pronounced “chaos” for most of my childhood

Beep boop! I look for accidental haiku posts. Sometimes I mess up.

the andrew garfield renaissance is real and it’s here
And I’m here for it
Matthias: Would you stab your best friend in the leg for 10 million kruge?
Nina: You stab me, and then when my leg gets better, we buy a big-ass house
Jesper: You can stab me too, then we'll have 20 million
Nina: Good thinking
Wylan: If you had to choose between Jesper and all the money I have in my wallet, which would you choose?
Kaz: That depends, how much money are we taking about?
Jesper: Kaz!
Wylan: 2 ½ kruge
Kaz: I'll take the money
Jesper:
Jesper: KAZ!!!
Jesper: I turned out perfectly fine!
Wylan: Jesper, this morning you thought a ghost made your toast
Jesper: I DIDN'T PUT THE BREAD IN! YOU DIDN'T PUT THE BREAD IN!!!
Jesper: Hey Kaz crazy story, around 10 guys just jumped me, and they stole all of my kruge I just earned!
Kaz: You gambled it all away didn't you
Jesper: Yes
Kaz: Of course you did
Kaz: I learned some very valuable lessons from this
Inej: I'm guessing they are all horrible distortions on the lessons you actually should've taken away
Kaz: Death isn't real, I’m basically God
