How is guarantee not spelled the way it sounds? Unless you pronounced it differently then I do.

World would be an easier place if we spelled everything the way they sound like in Spanish. Everything there is spelled exactly the way it sounds.


It's the 'u' in it that gets me, you don't really pronounce it (or at least not where I'm from, we say it like gah run tee), I get the a and u the wrong way around.

Yeah, I say it as (geh run tee) which gives me the "u" sound in there.

Saying "February" with the first r pronounced is a little irritating for me.
