※ 引述《AirOctopus (AirOctopus)》之銘言：
: 像是cover、brother、government的o，其實發音都是念u，
: 以發音來拼應該是cuver、bruther、guvernment才對，
: 而bother雖然跟brother只差一個r，但bother的o就要念o。
: 你各位知道英文的o常常要念u嗎？
唉...懂一點點就好像很厲害一樣
這個給你看你會不會唸吧：
When in English class we speak,
Why is break nor rhymed with freak?
Will you tell me why it's true
That we say sew, but also few?
When a poet writes a verse
Why is horse not rhymed with worse?
Beard sounds not the same as heard
Lord sounds not the same as word
Cow is cow, but low is low
Shoe is never rhymed with toe.
Think of nose and dose and lose
Think of goose, but then of
choose.
Confuse not comb with
tomb or bomb,
Doll with roll, or home with some.
We have blood and food and good.
Mould is not pronounced like could.
There's pay and say, but
paid and said.
"I will read", but "I have read".
Why say done, but gone and lone -
Is there any reason known?
To summarise, it seems to me
Sounds and letters disagree.
