Morning, gang. Not going in to work today- I'm not, I'm not, I'm not. I hope.

Gail? Why is friend spelled friend and not frend? And the ie in there isn't a dipthong is it? I'm trying to explain this to Oak. Do some pronounce it frind?
Posted by: Ana | February 11, 2008 at 06:31 PM
It used to be a diphthong, Ana. In Old English, it was freond, pronounced, FRAY-und, much as it is in many parts of the South today.

You're a fargin' genius, Gail.
Posted by: Scott P | February 11, 2008 at 09:56 PM
Well yes, indeed she is. So the spelling changed. I suspect I could look this up in the old Websters, eh?
Posted by: Ana | February 12, 2008 at 12:52 PM
The spelling didn't change as fast as the pronunciation, that's the problem.

Then why ain't I rich, Scott?
