You can change the spelling of one word in the English language to match how they are pronounced. What word do you pick? (lemmy.world)

I'm picking "Colonel" needs to be respelled to match how it's pronounced.

Try to pick a word no one else has picked. What word are you respelling?

It's pronounced "kaye" in a Pogues song, but songs aren't a good indication of pronunciation...poetic license reigns.

Hell, "reigns" is another candidate word.
