Mispronouncing Irish names is why Caitlín came to be pronounced "Kate-lin" by Americans.

and those languages are also unnecissarily esoteric

>>70460713
It make sense in a totally convuluted way that the language necessitates. People act like things like mh as 'v' is somehow insane when English uses digraphs like ch, th, ph, sh. Irish C is always a hard C which is perfectly sensible because why the fuck is C sometimes an S in other languages.

Irish monks were the people that decided maybe we should actually start adding spaces between words. Orareyougoingtostarttypingthepurenonpotatowaylikethis?

You just made that up.
>>
>>70460939
>In the 7th century Irish monks started using blank spaces, and introduced their script to France. By the 8th or 9th century spacing was being used fairly consistently across Europe.
>>
>>70460809
From the Gaelic point of view K is redundant because C is always /k/ in Irish and nobody was really using K when Irish adopted the Latin alphabet.
>>
You can get rid of C.

hard c = k
soft c = s
ch = x

all original words beginning with x now start with z; ie: zylophone
and with the new system, you'd have xurx fo church

in fact, you can probably assign these digraphs to new individual letters
ch, sh, th, ph, wh
ch is x
sh is ʃ
th is þ
and so on and so forth
>>
>>70460985
I don't know where that comes from but plenty of old texts have spaces between them, or dots instead.

No his eyes are too far apart and his nose looks flat from certain angles and I can't put my finger on the rest. Looks a bit like Maggie Gyllenhal.
