George Penney on Nostr: Anyone else ever have a moment when #writing over how odd a word is? Mine this ...
Anyone else ever have a moment when #writing over how odd a word is? Mine this morning is "carriage". What's that "ia" doing in there? I suspect there is unnecessary vowel fraternization going on. But either way, I will be sure to pronounce the word "Carr-ey-ahhhge" in my best Marlene Dietrich voice from now on, just to give those vowels a good work out. English is weird.
