Comment on English, old
*ye olde
Always mad that typesetters got lazy, and we dropped Thorn from our alphabet. Everyone is all “ye olde English” snark snark…that’s cause they dropped thorn and used y instead…it’s still a Th sound…god…why can’t you people be nerds?!
it annoys me so much how people say “yee oldee”, it’s literally just supposed to be pronounced like normal, but with stress on “the”, like “thee”
