>The earliest examples in OED are all from Scotland, and it seems even then that the "Lefftenant" pronunciation was being used (Barbour's "Bruce" has "luftenand" in the mid 14th century). Moreover an Old French rending of lieu was "luef". The British pronunciation was still used in the USA in 1793 but had almost died out except in military circles by 1893. One could explain this as the influence of non-British immigrants applying standard French pronunciation to a word with apparently obvious French origins.

Interesting premise, that video. Although I think it would be extremely hard to replace what we have, especially with American English borrowing even more loan words from other languages and being influenced by different immigrant groups.

that guy has a really punchable face

>c makes kuh sound
>h makes huh sound
>ch makes "ch" sound
literally why
>except sometimes c makes an "s" sound

>p makes "puh" sound
>ph make "f" sound
for what purpose?

thats just the tips of the iceberg
letters that sometimes make the same sound as other letters are fucking retarded and letters that make a whole new sound out of nowhere when combined with another letter are turbotarded
each letter should only make 1 sound and we should have a separate letter for sounds that we currently use combo of letters for
silent letters are gay

You should hear how Americans pronounce "Worcestershire"

English would feel too sanitized if we tried to reform the spelling. Each word contains so much information about its etymology that would just be discarded in favour of pandering to retarded thirdies who want to immigrate here.

look at the people in this video and tell me the UK is a normal place of normal people

Jeremy Kyle works by scraping up the utter dregs of society so the slightly less utter dregs of society can watch it and feel better about themselves.
I'm certain America has shows like this.

Jerry Springer is the archetype for these types of shows.

Virgin jerry springer vs chad Maury.

It does, there are entire channels devoted to watching American trash. TLC is nothing but highlighting all the degenerate retards of society.
