Idk English is so far down the list in terms of vowel sound complexity it may almost just as well be Arabic.

it's absolutely wild how:
- purred
- heard
- bird
all involve exactly the same vowel sound
English spelling is nonsense

Oh sure, I was just playin'.
The funniest part of English, to me, remains how your most used vowel sound isn't even in your alphabet

Our alphabet is phonetically superior to English, but it's no Hungarian or Polish.
