I know its a woman thing, but you know what they are like on here, the debate could go on for ever, and still get it wrong, you have created a monster! I dont see this as a male or female thing. It's just pointless on the back of a great away win. Who cares what we call him! It's not exactly a pressing topic Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Harry Posted September 20, 2020 Report Share Posted September 20, 2020 2 hours ago, mozo said: Paterson and Bakinson are a bit counterintuitive because they break the rule of vowel either side later or baking. English is a weird language though so whatevs. Yep. My daughter has been learning this at school recently - quite educational doing the home learning!! It’s called a Split Digraph. They use phonics these days, so teach kids that the vowels would generally be pronounced phonically : a as is apple, e as in egg, I as in igloo, o as in off, u as in under. Where there is a vowel, followed by a consonant and then another vowel, this is called a Split Digraph. So the word ‘Bake’, they call the ‘e’ the magic e. It makes the ‘a’ say it’s name rather than it’s sound. So instead of the A being the sound as in Apple, it’s the name A as in ABC, and thus sounded as in ‘acre’ or ‘age’. So technically, the A in Bakinson has a split digraph I, the magic I should make the A say it’s name not it’s phonic sound. So it should be Bake-inson. But I guess the lad knows his own name, so it goes against the rules of split digraphs. There you go. Home schooling rocks!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They also don't count if they cross a syllable boundary, such as in maternal (mat-er-nal). My partner is a primary school teacher...! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fairly sure we'd have found out via the club in an interview I guess it's a good thing that all we have to worry about is how to say a player's name Normally our issues extend well beyond this Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Many see Bucket as just that, the title owner may prefer 'Bouquet'. But in true OTIB tradition certain distractions to the main event become the main topic, as this little episode proves. BACKINSON is a headline writers gift..'BACKOFTHENETSON' is Sun journo dream, Any more? Lets get it all out so we can all get on with our lives.

Try this one with them then; If GH can stand for P as in Hiccough If OUGH stands for O as in Dough If PHTH stands for T as in Phthisis If EIGH stands for A as in Neighbour If TTE stands for T as in Gazette If EAU stands for O as in Plateau The right way to spell POTATO should be: GHOUGHPHTHEIGHTTEEAU.
