The missing letter ‘T’
This is an edited post from August 2021. It is still as bad, if not worse than before. Sunday 15*h Augus* I became aware a few mon*hs ago *ha* *he le**er ‘T’ was missing when people were *alking. Now, there can be one of a few reasons for this in my view, laziness, unable to spell so being unaware the word contains a T, a new form of slang ( maybe not that as even radio presenters miss out this precious member of the alphabet family.) Although I was born in London I spent most of my teen years living on the south coast. As a result I picked up the local dialect where most words are pronounced with ‘ing’ at the end. Absolutely nothing I can do about but to develop this casting aside of a letter seems to be a shame. Is it mockery at its worst? Posted by Ann Douglas at 12:34 Email This BlogThis!
