I am today years old learning that it was spelled with an L and not just a D.
Comment on What the hell! Let's all just go crazy!

That’s a lot or a little or a standard amount of years! And, still will be if people read these comments years from now.

In UK/Australia/NZ we pronounce it as written, with the l.

It was friends and YouTube content creators from the UK that made me realize that dropping the L isn’t done everywhere else. I grew up thinking that it was just one of those English words that break all the pronunciation rules.
