  I thought this was going to be about the programming language. :/ I blame XKCD

  Similar to kerning (the spacing between letters); fonts with bad kerning make the word look like keming.

  So is rhotacism (inability to pronounce “R”). Funnily enough, it also has the “R” sound in Ukrainian (картавість - Cyrillic “р” corresponds to the rolling “R” sound) and Russian

    As a Russian who cannot roll the R I feel the burn every time.

  Same thing with the guy who named it ‘dyslexia.’

    This word is actually not named maliciously at all. From Greek:

    “Dys,” meaning “bad,” or “abnormal,” like in Dysfunctional

    “Lexia” from “Lexis,” meaning “reading.” Think of “lexicon.”

    So now you have a perfectly normal word in Greek that came to the modern age and now is ironic because it’s not exactly native

  Try pronouncing “stuttering” while stuttering
