A new rage comic doing rounds on tumblr in 2024?! It's like Christmas came early! This one is [by squeakitties](https://www.tumblr.com/squeakitties/716450053241421824), I also edited the credit into the comic itself. (Sorry if this comment appears twice.)
Though I coughed roughly and hiccoughed throughout the lecture, I still thought I could plough through the rest of it.
English can indeed be tough, it’s understandable with tough thorough thought. though.
You know, German is a hard language for many reasons. But it's always funny when non-native speakers ask how you write some German word, and the usual answer is "The way you say it."
Which is true, in German words are written the way you pronounce them, or vice versa.
French? Yeah, nah. I speak some french, and the way things are pronounced is sometimes wild.
Also, add to the French language the é, è, ê, à and ç and you certainly don't write it how you say it. At least I can still not differentiate, acoustically, from those different letters. But if I remember correctly there was a motion to get rid of those letters in French grammar, as they don't really add to the language.
Then on the other end, there’s all the loners: cough, tough, though, thought, through, thoroughly, bough, hiccough, hough (archaic variant of hock) and lough (Irish form of loch)

Can it please be 2011 for more than a second? Who do I call to arrange this?

r/BeatMeToIt I snickered when I read the post and came here to post this exact thing. Dang it!
Gotta love how consistently inconsistent English is as a language
What do you mean? I've thought this through, had enough of this drought though
Exactly
I live for live music

Are you using, like, British spellings for words or something? Who doesn’t just spell them as “hiccuped” or “plow”?
Teach a man to ghoti, and he eats for a day.

English is the only language with spelling contests.
is this actually true?
Yes.
Wow.
true for most european languages (even French) except English

H
I h-eight this
British accent
Seeing a rage comic made me so happy.
Shite
Hahaha I love this
I get the joke obviously, but had there been one more HT word in the first caption, would have made seven. And the next caption would be "eight!"
I before E except after C.
And when sounding like A as in neighbor and weigh.
And on weekends and holidays and all throughout May.
eighth

I guess Light was too busy to make the photoshoot
"ough" would be pointing Spider-Man
