    Why can’t we just pronounce it Wodan’s Day?

      People look at me funny when I say it that way. They notice less when I say Thor’s-day or Moonday and Frijjaday. Obviously there has been no notice taken at all when I say Sun-day .

    My brain would also like to propose a new spelling+pronunciation for “remember”: rember

    English is the imperial system of phonetics (well, French is worse)

    I am fine with “when’s day” as long as we rename the following day as “then’s day” instead of “their’s day”.

    And though, through, thought, thorough, throughout should be thoh, throo, thort, thuruh, throoawt.

    Funetic speling roolz. Or maybe not. Dunno.

    because in english you have “silent letters” letters that you write but dont say.

    they are unnecessary, please improve the language.

      the language is fine, the spelling just needs updating. which is easy, we just pick a dialect of english and base it on that.

      which dialect? well, how about indian english. that seems fair.
