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?

The only one they changed is the double l. ll to sounds like a y. But in some circles they consider that a seperate letter to the Spanish alphabet. Overall it is fairly consistent.

Even better, Spanish words are typically broken into two (or is it to or too) letter syllables.
