"Xylophone Zelda". Really fucked over Xenias introduction

Uh, xylophone doesn't start with Z, back to kindergarten until you learn your letters.

He can blame english phonetics. Also X being kind of a joker letter. "Why does eks make the sound zee?"

[–] sugar_in_your_tea@sh.itjust.works 5 points 3 days ago

The teacher clearly said "letter" though, so phonetics shouldn't come into it. If they were named "Pete," "Psycho Pete" would be reasonable and probably accurate.

Also, xylophone is a noun anyway, so after they redo kindergarten, they'll need to go back to second grade (or maybe first?) and relearn basic grammar.

Finally, English phoenetics is an oxymoron, but I don't think kids get into that concept until later on in school, so I'll give you a pass for now. But everyone knows English pronunciation and spelling aren't related and you just end up memorizing everything anyway.

But X starts with Z, so q.e.d.

[–] sugar_in_your_tea@sh.itjust.works 1 points 3 days ago (1 children)

Can't fault that logic.

I don't know what's worse, naming your kid after a fox that uses Linux or a suburb of Dayton.
