So how did you get your nickname used here?

or 'naif' Tongue

Unless you guys actually say 'nifeh' :lol:.
the e makes the I "say its name" lol, ai doesnt really make the I sound that I know of. ntm, there are plenty of words with a silent e at the end. Silent letters are not the problem, its putting sounds in where there is no letter representing them.

Thats more likely because they don't know that 'll' has the sound it has... I mean, its the same sound that you have in "you" (the y...)
I have never said toriLLa, its tort-EE-a. Reminds me of people who pronounce gyros "Jy-rows" instead of "your-o's" :roll:
