It serves no purpose and frustrates me to no end. I know you are thinking, &#8220;Why chloe? Why does something as small as a letter make you so mad? What&#8217;s wrong with it?&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Well&#8230;<\/p>\n<p>The letter Q is as dependent letter, meaning it can&#8217;t make it&#8217;s sound without using a &#8216;u&#8217;. Now. It would be so incredibly simple to change words like &#8220;Quiet&#8221; into a another form that makes the same sound and uses the same amount of letters. This discovery should dethrone the letter Q from his place in the alphabet.<\/p>\n<p>Kwiet\/Cwiet<\/p>\n<p>SEE????<\/p>\n<p>DO<br \/>\nYOU<br \/>\nSEE<\/p>\n<p>The letter Q is unnecessary, and what makes it even worse EVEN WORSE my friends, is that the Q can make the C\/K sound, as in the word, &#8220;Clique.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>w h a t<\/p>\n<p>We already have two letters that make that sound<\/p>\n<p>not one<\/p>\n<p>T W O<\/p>\n<p>WE DON&#8217;T NEED ANOTHER ONE<br \/>\nWHO CAME UP WITH THIS<\/p>\n<p>anyways&#8230;<\/p>\n<p>this brings us to my next point.<\/p>\n<p>why do we have to letters that make the same sound? Why are there some cases in which we put them together as in the word &#8220;duck?&#8221; NOT NEEDED. IT DOESN&#8217;T MAKE THE WORD ANY DIFFERENT. Also why, why, why, why, can the &#8216;C&#8217; Make the &#8216;S&#8217; sound but the &#8216;K&#8217; can&#8217;t????????? In what universe does that makes since???? THEY MAKE THE SAME. SOUND. WHY DOES ONE GET SPECIAL PRIVILEGES<\/p>\n<p>AND THIS<\/p>\n<p>THIS IS JUST ONE OF MANY INSTANCES WHERE LETTERS GET TO <strong>STEAL<\/strong> OTHER LETTERS SOUNDS.<\/p>\n<p>let&#8217;s move to my next example<\/p>\n<p>The &#8216;F&#8217;<\/p>\n<p>so, just a question, who gave &#8216;ph&#8217; the right to take the &#8216;F&#8217; sound as their own? Why do they get to do that???? &#8220;alphabet&#8221; &#8220;Phonics&#8221; &#8220;phone&#8221; The list goes on and on. This isn&#8217;t fair. Why are we making words harder to spell??? Who did this? WHO DID THIS???<\/p>\n<p>This is injustice. This isn&#8217;t okay. WE DON&#8217;T NEED THESE.<\/p>\n<p>and now<\/p>\n<p>now we have arrived<\/p>\n<p>at silent letters.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;opossum&#8221; &#8220;Dumb&#8221; &#8220;Butcher&#8221; &#8220;Ghost&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>WHAT<br \/>\nWHAT<br \/>\nWHAT<br \/>\nWHAT<br \/>\nno.<\/p>\n<p>guys, by now you HAVE to see my point. There&#8217;s no need. And these aren&#8217;t even all the problems. What about plurals? What about the &#8216;oo&#8217;making sound &#8216;u&#8217;\u00a0 makes What about past tense words using &#8216;ed&#8217; to make the &#8216;t&#8217; sound? Can you hear a difference in stopped and stopt???? NO. I SIMPLIFIED IT.<\/p>\n<p>this just isn&#8217;t it. it just makes no sense absolutely no sense and the thing is, as you are reading, you will come up with more. the harder you think the more questions will arise until you are consumed with the question &#8220;WHY?&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Arkansas. Kansas.<br \/>\nWHAT<\/p>\n<p>I don&#8217;t get it. I just don&#8217;t.<\/p>\n<p>Now keep in mind, this has not been a rant. This is a protest. I am raising awareness of the idiocy of it all. Now everyone who reads will get to understand that there is stupidity in all things, even something as vital as written language.<\/p>\n<p>Thank you, goodnight.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<hr \/>\n<p><span style=\"font-family: book antiqua,palatino,serif;\">No one:<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-family: book antiqua,palatino,serif;\">Absolutely no one:<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-family: book antiqua,palatino,serif;\">Not a soul:<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-family: book antiqua,palatino,serif;\">Literally no one ever:\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-family: book antiqua,palatino,serif;\">Chloe: thE alFAbEt iS sToOpId<\/span><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Alright guys prepare yourselves this is a conversation that absolutely no one cares about, but I do so here we are.
