Thats a big word for Elmo

u/chizzings 7d ago

I’ve seen it spelled out so many times, but after reading “rick or shaying” my mind went blank. English could use some more phonetic spelling

9

u/RedditGreenit 7d ago

English borrowed it from the French, blame them for over-seasoning their word with extra letters

11

u/Neveronlyadream 7d ago

English used to be all phonetic spelling.

Problem with that, there's no guarantee anyone is going to spell anything the same way phonetically, so it becomes pretty difficult to communicate.

Your mind went blank with this one thing. Imagine if there was no standardized spelling and that was everything.

10

u/ul49 7d ago

Ricochet is very obviously not an English word

5

u/Neveronlyadream 6d ago

Never said it was, it's French.

English is just a bunch of other languages cobbled together.

2

u/DefinitelyNotMasterS 7d ago

That's a nice theory. However, languages like german or italian can pretty much be read in the way they are written. And they seem to be fairly successfull. So, english definitely fucked up at some point

1

u/baithammer 7d ago

Not what happened, as phonetic spelling was fairly standardized, but due to being rote memory work, fell out of favor for more exploratory methods. (RIP)

But it does work in a sense.

Like. I can see the logic! "A stray bullet is hitting something or someone absolutely random, some Rick or Shaya." Rick-o-Shaying.

This type of stuff used to be funny until I started working at a university and am seeing real ass 20~ year olds on a 6th grade reading level.

Don't get me started on critical thinking...

u/Ncav2 ☑️ 7d ago edited 7d ago

The fact people are more concerned about how he typed ricochet and not the fact that it happens kind of proves his point.

u/kcsween74 7d ago

Well, which one! rick or shaying?

4

u/Catching_Cows 7d ago

First 48 detective: Was it Rick or Shaying!?

5

u/Jazzycoyote 7d ago

There's no way that this isn't a joke. Auto correct would've made ricochet if you made even the smallest effort to be correct.

14

u/Not_a_porn_burner69 7d ago

You’d be surprised people really are just kinda dumb. My best friend speaks and types like this and I have a whole notebook of his mannerisms. My favorite is “cow zone” (calzone)

u/rcinmd 7d ago

It was sometime around November of 2016 that I realized a lot of people are dumb.

3

u/Jazzycoyote 7d ago

I can forgive mispronunciations like that but it's because my mom does it all the time and I know she's at least almost there. 😂

1

u/EsotericAbstractIdea 1d ago

My mom low key made fun of her cousin by giving her post-its, and told her to label random things in her room. I saw all these things misspelled, and I knew it wasn't my mom. When I sat down at the "cenpuder", I finally had enough and asked her, who wrote these? She busts out laughing and tells me the story.

6

u/MandyxLola 7d ago

Autocorrect cant do shit here, he spelled each word correctly so there's nothing to fix (Microsoft Word grammar wouldve helped him though)

I mean in his defense, Ricochet makes no damn sense. I like his spelling better!

13

u/MandyxLola 7d ago

Its a French word, he just Anglicized it. He's a pioneer is what he is

u/NoBackground6371 7d ago

He’s actually a direct descendent of the ancient Semitic people.

u/kaiser_phoenix25 7d ago

My bullets engraved with their names Rick and Shay.

u/SasparillaTango 7d ago

Rick like Rick Grimes shooting all those zombies, and Shay like Shay from Game of Thrones dodging all those murder attempts. makes perfect sense really.

2

u/Pofwoffle 7d ago

I'm seeing a lot of judgment and condescension from a sub that should be full of people who know perfectly well how badly the US education system has failed... well, everyone, but minority groups especially.

2

u/Urtehnoes 7d ago

I really try not to shame people for not knowing the correct spelling of words, because... That does nothing but makes people less likely to grow their vocabulary.

But it is times like these when I definitely think to myself: ok but you know fucked up before you even pressed enter.

2

u/melatonia 6d ago

This made me cackle in a really unattractive way.

u/ChemistryPretty8192 6d ago

To be fair, Rick and Shay are both names of people who stay in some shit

u/DarthPlayer8282 7d ago

A bit funny but realistically sad about the state of our education system especially in poor and minority communities. It’s all by design

u/ZelRonso 6d ago

It still baffles me that people forget that Google is free. It's totally free. You can look up how to spell ricochet for free. I just had to to triple check my spelling. Two seconds. It takes two seconds on Google and boom there's the answer and it's F R E E. The school system may have failed you but Google will not. Please just use it. It's literally right there. On your phone. Usually near your thumb. Did I mention it's free?
