When your mom enunciates the Bruce, you know you're in big trouble.
na than
Shorten it to "Than", the "Na" is silent. I'd rather you pronounce the "Th" like "Thought" to say "Than" than "Than" like a typical "The" sound. When I was younger I had them call me "Thane", that was "Than" with a nonexistent silent "E" that wasn't on the end.
Is that sentence even readable?
No, I hate it- it's perfect.
It's the name of the twin you absorbed in the womb.
Middle names are kinda like that
New guy at work's legal name is Emilejustin, and goes by Justin. Effectively the Emile is silent.
I used to work with a guy whose first name was Lordprince. His parents must have had high hopes for him.
I've had classmates named after large numbers, like trillion and billion.
A friend's brother was named 'Suprman'. Yes, it was spelled without the e
They left out the "E' for an Extra Enhancement on that "Eeeeeewwww".
this guy?
I know only one sentence in gaelic: Tiocfaidh ár lá
... the "faidh" is silent. I wonder how many more words like that they have.
I don't know if this is exactly how it works in Irish Gaelic, but in Scottish Gaelic the reason there are so many silent letters is because of vowel combinations, broad and slender consonants and lenition
The Scottish Gaelic equivalent of that phrase would be "Thig ar latha" i think, which funnily enough doesn't contain any silent letters I think
Fucking "Queue" has entered the chat...
Q huehue
ueue is silent
Sure, Queueuentin.
Qué?
Since when did the alien comic guy stray into microblogging?
Since forever I think, but tbh I only follow his comics so I don't know what else is he writing about
I'm gonna guess since 2018 at least
That's Nathan for you.
Imagine using a language that has consistent pronunciation and no concept of "silent" letters

Nein
So it’s just pronounced “nat-han” then?
Now that's a reasonable idea that won't go out of hand!
"It's spelled Raymond Luxury-Yacht, but it's pronounced 'Throatwobbler Mangrove'."

My dumbass would make it parenthetical. "My name is Bruce, the nat-han is silent."
This the alien comics guy
