You can change the spelling of one word in the English language to match how they are pronounced. What word do you pick? (lemmy.world)

I'm picking "Colonel" needs to be respelled to match how it's pronounced.

Try to pick a word no one else has picked. What word are you respelling?

I came here to "correct" you to that, yes. But then it's not really IPA anymore, and the other character doesn't make sense now. May as well stick to the more universal system.
