@chaosprime i will let you know! it is something i want to fix at some point, at least w/ the ones i don't update constantly -
@chaosprime i also have a lot of very strong and irrational feelings re: first vowel and a deep and abiding hatred of "an historic" -
@NoraReed > eval -b a("historic") "a historic" i got your back -
@chaosprime thank god "herb" and "herbal" too i have very strong opinions about this considering i was like "ehhh too lazy to implement" -
@NoraReed i am producing "an herb", not sure if that's the case you hate or not. i had missed herbal, though, so thanks! -
@NoraReed perhaps our Opinions on working class British elisions and hypercorrections conflict, which i suppose is a thing that happens -
@chaosprime i just realized i totally do not mind it in writing i just hate it among people who pronounce the "h" -
@NoraReed oh, well, yeah, obvs if you pronounce the h you don't preserve the article from the elided-h case, that would be ludicrous - 1 more reply
