        this is like “atheism doesn’t belong as an option in “religion” boxes for personal data”

        you have a phonetic system, it being a pile of shit isn’t the fault of other languages.

      I don’t blame folk for not knowing the international phonetic alphabet, even though this here is what it’s for. I have trouble keeping track of all of my vowels
