Reply to comment by spolite in English is such an unreasonable language that spelling is a national sport by eldrolamam

In some languages, mine included, words are spelled exactly as they are pronounced for the most part. Sure, there are some similar sounds here that can make you confused with a letter or two, but not enough to make it a contest worthy skill.
