To be fair, not everyone is a native english speaker and the doubling up of the apostrophe to indicate both contraction and possession can get confusing when talking about words like "it" and "who".

I just don't see why we don't use apostrophes for both. Its not like we can't use simple context to understand it's use.

>>389131189

I heard it's due to the early days of the printing press using the "v" shape to indicate both the letter v and the letter u. So people would see "lievtenant" and assume it's pronounced "levtenant" which gradually became "leftenant" and that just stuck for some reason in England.

>>389131537
I'm pretty sure both are fine.

Fair enough. I forget that 4chan has lots of ESL posters. I'm shouldn't fault them for the more nuanced grammar in English

Unless you've heard or been told the proper pronunciation, there's plenty of borrowed words in the English language that don't read as they look.

Oh how ironic, the reason people take the piss out of the way Americans say Mario is because you put a bloody "r" in the middle.
