- krunck 2y agoIf people read "fury" as "furry" then that's a literacy problem.
- prophesi 2y agoAs someone who reads/watches a lot of Japanese media, "fury" isn't how I would first read "furi". I do like "FuriOS" and think it avoids this issue, but other portmanteaus might be better avoided.
- avazhi 2y agoYou’re right. And if you can’t understand why almost everyone will read ‘furi’ as furry and not ‘fury’, then you’ve got a phonics problem.
