    Which if I’m being honest, thank fuck for that. I couldn’t stand it if English had three different letters for basically the exact same sound, it’s just unnecessarily complicated imo.

      That is like saying f and v make the same sound. English doesn’t have enough letters for the number of phonemes, which is one of the reasons it is so difficult to learn.
